Art Walk
15 October 2022
Each piece contained a message about the impact plastic waste has on nature. The 10 artworks were shown in the shop windows of Elwood. We ended the day with an auction on our grounds.

When it comes to reducing plastic waste, we are hopeful as together we can make a change.     .  ...

Today our students had great fun helping Earthcare St Kilda to get indigenous plants into the ground near the Elwood canal. Learning first-hand how to care for nature is a valuable lesson.

Let's clean up!

Every year our students join the Clean Up Australia Day. We go out into our community to pick up litter. A School Clean Up is a great way to inspire students to learn about the impact of rubbish on their local environment while playing an active role in their community.      .  ...
Nature Play Cubby House
19 November 2021
At St Columba's we have loved enjoying our nature play cubby house when we are at school. It has had a makeover and now includes a nature art station where students can look through the windows to draw the beautiful nature surrounding it. We have a cozy corner to enjoy nature books and novels and a sensory wall to feel different recycled materials. Students have also enjoyed our bush kitchen to explore making things with natural materials. ...

What our parents & students say

"St Columba's is known as the little school with the big heart and you notice that when you first arrive. Every teacher and every student knows your child by name. They offer bespoke learning experiences for children to enjoy while at school."
