Early Learning Centre
We are delighted to share that construction has officially commenced on our Early Learning Centre. We anticipate significant progress throughout this term and look forward to providing regular updates to our school community.
Our Preschool Provider Approval is currently under assessment, and our Service Approval application will be submitted next week. In the coming weeks, we will also host an information session for families interested in enrolling for 2027 and beyond. Further details will be shared soon.
Stage 2 – Multi-Purpose Stadium
We expect to receive the Construction Certificate for Stage 2 of our Multi-Purpose Stadium within the next few days. Construction will then begin shortly thereafter.
By the start of Term 1, 2027, students will benefit from outstanding new facilities, including a Food Technology space, two General Learning Areas, a large Music classroom, and four individual music practice rooms. We look forward to seeing this exciting development take shape.

Volunteering Opportunities
There are many ways to get involved in our school community, and we are incredibly grateful to those who generously give their time. Opportunities include assisting with covering library resources, helping in the uniform shop, supporting events (such as BBQs for Mother’s Day and other special occasions), wreath making for ANZAC Day, our Stephanie Alexander Garden Program, and assisting with our annual Mother’s Day and Father’s Day stalls, just to name a few.
If you are interested in volunteering in any areas of the school, please contact the Primary School Reception—we would love to hear from you.

As June 30 approaches, you may be considering making a tax-deductible donation. Our School Building Fund and Scholarship Fund are both registered with the Australian Taxation Office, and donations to these funds are tax-deductible. If you are considering a contribution, please feel free to contact me. Your support is greatly appreciated and makes a meaningful difference to our school community.
