Location ProfileRipponlea Primary School is located in East St Kilda, only 10 kilometres southeast of the Melbourne City Centre. Ripponlea State School 4087 opened on 3 July 1922 and has a proud history of serving families and students with a high-quality education in a safe, friendly, and inclusive school environment.
Centenary celebrations in 2022, marked our deep connections to the longest-living culture, the Boon Wurrung (Bunurong) people of the Kulin Nations, our school community past and present as well as our commitment to the future. The school community united to establish the Koor Indigenous Garden, and new House Names (Bemin, Booring, Tunparrim & Warren) and in 2024 will begin developing the school¿s Reconciliation Action Plan.
Our vision is for the students of Ripponlea to be global and creative thinkers who are empowered with the skills and empathy to engage with an ever-changing world. They care, they create, they connect . We are a learning community where, in partnership, all students, staff and families can learn and support each other and respond to change. We have an agreed set of values that are central to the life of the school. We embody Community, Creativity, Integrity, Open-mindedness, Resilience, and Respect in everything that we do and strive to be.
Ripponlea Primary School (RPS) empowers students to connect with their true selves and use strengths, passions, and skills, helping them to develop strategies to further their successes. This includes teaching students to understand how they learn, taking personal responsibility for their learning, self-regulating, self-managing, self-reflecting for improvement and setting goals to maximise their learning and social outcomes. We do so in a balanced approach that is personalised and encourages students to aspire beyond their potential. Personal attributes such as adaptability, collaboration, organisation, gratitude and tolerance are fostered to develop the 'whole' child. `We work hard to make sure our students are at the 'heart of everything we do.¿
