Welcome to Warriappendi School
Warriappendi is a small secondary school specifically for Aboriginal students. We are located in Marleston, 4.1km from the Adelaide GPO. Warriappendi School engages young people in their education by creating a positive learning environment in which students are able to experience a strong sense of belonging.
The school provides students with an opportunity to build on existing knowledge through high level individual planning and support. We offer small class sizes (staffed at a 1:8 teacher to student ratio), and a focus on quality teaching and learning.
– Providing opportunities for success –

Errappa Blue Light Camp was an absolute blast for our students (and teachers). A huge thank you to SAPOL for organising and volunteering at our school's camp, it was greatly appreciated.
Students (and staff) participated in obstacle courses, team building exercises, volleyball, gang up chasey, orienteering, star gazing and lots, lots more!
We can't wait to see what next year's school camp will involve 🏕

School Camp
We are all looking forward to camp next week at Erappa, Iron Knob.
All students that have returned their consent forms are expected to attend camp. Warriappendi School will not be staffed for students that decide at the 'last minute' to not attend and hence no school program will be provided until Friday.

Yesterday we hosted our annual Achievement Day! An enormous thank you to all staff that coordinated, organised, presented, showed initiative, 'chipped in' and attended yesterday's events.
We had an excellent turn out from community; thank you to those of you that made an effort to attend, it was greatly appreciated. The luncheon, official ceremony, limousine and dinner all ran smoothly.
We are so proud of our 2022 graduates and student award winners.
Congratulations everyone on your achievements, especially our graduates!

Staff have collaboratively conducted a whole school program for students each Friday of this term. The focus areas are of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Students participate in activities that challenge their thinking.
Staff are impressed with students who have applied themselves, shown great knowledge and the ability to think outside the box!
BRING ON THIS FRIDAY 🧑🏿🔬
