Kimberwalli Back to School 2027
Helping our young people start the school year ready to learn!
Kimberwalli is pleased to support Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander high school students as they get ready for the 2027 school year.
We know getting ready for school can be expensive for families. Our Back to School resource packs include essential school supplies to help our young people start the year prepared and ready to learn.
Resource packs can be collected on Tuesday 19 January 2027, during our Back to School Community Day at Kimberwalli, 1C Mimika Avenue, Whalan.

We warmly invite families to join us at Kimberwalli for a fun day celebrating our young people and the start of a new school year. There will be plenty of fun activities for the whole family, including:

Families will also have the chance to yarn with different services and get support, including:
- Hearing Australia and Mobileyes – limited eye, dental and hearing checks
