Welcome

The school first opened in 1998 and our grounds con­tain four gen­er­al learn­ing areas, each with four class­rooms and com­mu­nal work­ing spaces for addi­tion­al work with stu­dents; as well as a library, mul­ti-pur­pose hall and stage, can­teen and sin­gle unit preschool set amongst well main­tained grounds with a com­bi­na­tion of shad­ed and open play­ing areas and out­door facil­i­ties. The vision for our school — ​‘We Strive to Achieve’ is reflec­tive of a com­mu­ni­ty where learn­ers can iden­ti­fy aspi­ra­tional goals for ongo­ing improve­ment and can artic­u­late a plan to achieve this, demon­strat­ing growth towards and beyond their tar­gets each year.
