About the project

We built a new primary school in Cranbourne North. It opened in 2026, helping the growing local population get great education close to home.

The school is open for enrolments for students in Prep to Grade 6.

Tracy Knight was appointed the first principal of the school.

The school was known by its interim name, Casey Central Primary School, during planning and design. Kala Primary School was chosen as this new school’s name following community and Traditional Owner group consultation. Kala (pronounced KUH-luh) is a Boonwurrung language word meaning dog.

For enrolment enquiries or to learn more about the school, please visit the school's website or email kala.ps@education.vic.gov.au.
