We are a large multicultural school with 690 students, who love to celebrate the diversity and uniqueness of our students and staff.

This commitment is emphasised with the introduction of the PMSS initiative in science, thus enhancing and demonstrating the ongoing commitment of all staff to develop their professional teaching and learning skills to the highest level.
Inspiring students to be active participants in their learning, we encourage and promote student voice and agency. Inclusiveness with our students includes ILP’s, where collaboration between staff, parents, and students achieve appropriate learning outcomes.
Families form an integral part of the learning experience through our strong volunteer base and allow us to provide valued and necessary programs. Our successful Kitchen Garden Program is led by a qualified nutritionist, facilitated by a qualified horticulturalist and supported by numerous volunteers.
We embrace our families to celebrate the learning accomplishments of all students. Special Persons Day, Footy Day, Book Week, Science Week, our annual Christmas Concert and Art Show are just some of the events our families are able to attend and come together to unite our diverse and inclusive community.
