School Houses
At Sandringham Primary School we have four houses:
Wominjeka: Blue
Burtkurmin: Green
Kurki Kurki: Red
Tarndowring: Yellow
These house groups are typically used for sport competitions at school and students will be advised which house they are allocated to upon commencement at Sandringham Primary School.
The house names were selected by our students to represent our school’s culture and values, and we are pleased to share the meanings behind these chosen indigenous words…
Wominjeka: Everyone in the school is welcome, no matter where they are from.  At Sandringham Primary School, we are welcoming to all.
Burtkurmin: We want our school to be a peaceful place, where no one is bullied.
Kurki Kurki: We are friends and family; we are caring to each other.
Tarndowring: We want everyone to be treated equally and fairly.  We believe no one should be left out of activities or treated any differently to anyone else.
Sandringham Primary School respectfully acknowledges the Boon Wurrung /
Bunurong
people, and other peoples of the Kulin Nation on whose ancestral lands we teach and learn. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
Sandringham Primary School is located about 15 kilometres south east of the Melbourne City Centre. The school is one of the oldest in Victoria, celebrating 170 years in 2025.
