Learn about our mission to preserve and share Punjabi heritage
A Community Built on Heritage
Guru Nanak Punjabi School Allenby Gardens was established with a vision to preserve and pass on the rich Punjabi language and culture to future generations. Named after Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism, our school embodies the principles of equality, service, and learning.
Located in Allenby Gardens, Adelaide, we serve the South Australian Punjabi community by providing quality language education every Sunday. Our dedicated volunteer teachers are passionate about ensuring that children maintain a strong connection to their roots while growing up in Australia.
We are proudly affiliated with Community Language Schools SA (CLSSA) and the Ethnic Schools Association of South Australia, ensuring our curriculum meets high educational standards while celebrating our unique cultural heritage.
