Our School

Currumbin Valley State School is a small school situated in the beautiful Currumbin Valley.

Many of its students do not actually live in the Currumbin Valley area. Parents have chosen to send their children to our school because we offer a unique small school environment.

Having a student population of less than 100 students means that we can, and do, provide more individualised care and support for our students. Every staff member knows every child, and all the children know each other. We provide a safe, secure, caring and loving environment for each child.
