We are committed to providing contemporary and inspiring outdoor spaces that support the way children play, learn, and connect. We’re excited to share that works to remove and replace our ageing Junior Primary and Middle Primary Playgrounds and enhance our Aquaponics learning space have now begun!

 

While these long-awaited improvements are an exciting step forward for our school, they will bring a period of disruption to Imagination OSHC, play areas, and at times, the main car park. We ask for your patience and understanding during this extended period of time as we work to create the amazing spaces your children deserve for learning and play.

 

Throughout the process we will continue to prioritise safety, supervision, and a positive experience for every student.

 

This carefully planned redevelopment will take place in three stages and involve temporary changes to how some spaces are accessed and used...

Stage 3 – Junior Primary Playground / Oval Edge

How We’re Adapting to Support Students

- Combined recess across year levels

- Staggered lunch timetables to reduce play area congestion

- Staff carpark becomes a temporary hard play area for SP students 

  (No staff parking throughout the redevelopment)

- Gym open for indoor play and movement breaks

- New play resources introduced each term

- Creative Play Zone along Stage 1 verandah

- Altered duty schedules to maintain strong supervision

 

Why This Will Work for Students

- Students are spread across more supervised areas

- A staggered approach allows for smooth transitions

- Supports emotional regulation and gradual adaptation to new spaces

 

What Stays the Same

- Access to the Oval, Gym, Library, Lunch Clubs and Creative Play

- Consistent number of staff on duty

- Safe, supportive routines remain in place

Before School Arrivals (from 8:15am)

- Stage 1 & 2 students: Junior Primary Playground

- Stage 3 & 4 students: Gym/Courts

*Please note that indoor areas remain closed before the bell and oval games are not permitted in the morning.

 

 

Should you have any questions or concerns, please send an email to our Marketing & Communications Coordinator, Mrs Reddy, and she will assist you.

 

We’re excited to bring life back to these spaces and are confident that our approach supports student wellbeing, engagement, and safe play throughout the transition. 

 

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
