Happy Holidays!

Lunch club timetable

From Construction Club to Quiet Club, we offer a range of activities at lunch time for students to enjoy.

Bike parking

We encourage students to ride to school as a great way to support a healthy, active lifestyle!

 

A secure bike/scooter parking area is available for students and is locked between 9:15am and 3:15pm each day.

 

Please note that this area is not covered by CCTV, so if your child is staying for after-school activities, we recommend they use a lock.

Seeking a Grant Writer

Are you a wordsmith – an expert at writing grant applications that auspicing organisations can’t resist? Then we want you to join our team of wonderful volunteers.

 

Callie MacIntosh is currently leading our efforts to secure funding for sustainability projects and recently had success with a Junior Landcare and Biodiversity Grant. However, we have other exciting projects in the pipeline that can only be made possible with external funding.

 

If you’d like to learn more, please email our Principal Tom Cain.
