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.
