The name Ludmilla is derived from
Ludmilla Holtze, the daughter of Maurice Holtze the curator
of Palmerston Public Gardens, who came to Darwin in 1817.
The nearby Ludmilla Creek and suburb were named after
her. Senator Carrick, Federal Minister for Education
officially opened the school in 1967. Ludmilla School is
located on Bagot Road which is a six lane highway connecting
the Northern Suburbs and Palmerston to the Darwin CBD. A
traffic overpass located on the southern side of the school
connects Bagot Road to the Stuart Highway. A walk bridge was
constructed near the school in the 1980’s to enable
pedestrians to safely cross the road. The entrance of the
school was modified in 1999 to enable better entrance and
egress. The
air-conditioned classrooms are built around two quadrangles.
In the centre of the school there is an air-conditioned
assembly hall fondly known as ‘The Great Shed” and two
undercover areas each side of the canteen. There are three
integration classes from Nemarluk School. One senior class
is in the primary block and the two junior classes are
located in the early childhood section of the school. The
Nemarluk Pre-school also visits weekly for integration
experiences with the Ludmilla Pre-school children. The
Ludmilla Pre-school forms part of the early childhood
section of the school with the playground located in the
quadrangle. The RAAF Base Pre-school is a single unit in a
new building shared with Kidz Force Child Care Centre
located on RAAF Base Darwin. Other government agencies are
housed upstairs at the Ludmilla School Campus. These include
Top End Group Schools (TEGS), National Accelerated Literacy
Project (NALP), Council of Government Schools Organisation
(COGSO) and Association of Northern Territory School
