The King David School is a forward-thinking school that fosters a love of learning, egalitarianism and a proud connection to Jewish identity.
The King David School acknowledges the Bunurong/Boon Wurrung and the Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin nation as Traditional Owners of the land on which we are fortunate to teach and learn. We also acknowledge Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia and their continuing connection to land, sea and community. In the spirit of tikkun olam, we seek to ‘learn and understand’ the history, struggle and culture of our First Nations People. We pay our respects to them and to their Elders past and present.
