Within this educational environment, our school continues to thrive and builtd on its strong foundations to perform at a high level. Our students excel in their academic, cultural and sporting achievements. A consistent focus on improving literacy and numeracy outcomes for all students is supported by excellent classroom practice, a strong Learning and Support Team and weekly teacher professional learning sessions. Student participation in a wide variety of performing arts and sporting programs is encouraged. Our dedicated teaching staff is to be commended for their work. They combine a strong sense of caring with a professional approach, high expectations and a willingness to contribute well above normal expectations. They are well supported by an equally committed team of administrative and support staff. A collaborative partnership exists within the school between staff and the parent community. Teaching and learning is enhanced through parental involvement in the P&C, a range of successful fundraising efforts and parent assistance in the classrooms.
We recognise the Ongoing Custodians of the lands and waterways where we work and live. We pay respect to Elders past and present as ongoing teachers of knowledge, songlines and stories. We strive to ensure every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learner in NSW achieves their potential through education.
