Important Things To Know

Playground Redevelopment Update

Playground redevelopment is running on time with lots of progress happening already!

The middle playground has now been removed, with final area preparation being completed ready for installation of the new equipment, landscaping, and soft fall by approximately end of September (weather permitting).

Our outdoor classroom and aquaponics space is also coming along leaps and bounds.

Running on time for completion by end of August (weather permitting) with the main pit and seating area coming together before the open roof verandah is installed and landscaping completed.

In consultation with teaching staff, learning enrichment team, student leadership team and students, these playgrounds and play spaces have been designed for enhanced supervision, gross motor play, imaginative play, and inclusive interaction. The updated environments reflect our commitment to student wellbeing, providing safe, engaging areas that encourages emotional growth, independence, and physical development for all children.

Temporary play instructions and expectations have been communicated with teaching and support staff ready for the return of students in Term 3, with alternative play options and areas in place to ensure a smooth transition for our students over the coming months of disruption, allowing for safe supervision as well as continued fun.

We're very excited to see these new fit-for-purpose spaces come to life, meeting the needs of all student age groups and abilities for years to come.

School and ELC Uniform Guidelines

While we no longer have a set 'summer' and 'winter' uniform as students are able to wear uniform items appropriate for the weather of the day and their needs, it is still a requirement that the specified compulsory and non-compulsory uniform requirements are followed.

Please refer to our school uniform guide and ensure your child/children are wearing the correct uniform (including jumpers, jackets, and footwear), their hair is styled so as not to draw unnecessary attention to the student, and items not permitted (like make-up, nail polish or stick-on nails, interactive smart watches etc) are not being worn.
