Our principal and staff

Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.

Welcome from our principal

"We are delighted to welcome you to our school, where every child is supported to learn, grow, and succeed. As a small school with the opportunities of a larger one, we pride ourselves on knowing every student as an individual, while offering a wide range of learning, sporting, cultural, and leadership experiences.

Our values -  Be a Learner, Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Kind, Be Cooperative - guide everything we do. They shape the way we learn together, the way we care for one another, and the way we engage with our community.
