Everybody knows your name
With around 500 enrolled students, our school is a little bit like a village. Our students and staff enjoy feeling part of a community - everybody knows your name, every person is valued and we all share a sense of belonging.
Achievements are celebrated as a community and support and care is offered when needed.

We value, support and celebrate diversity and recognise the valuable contribution our multi-cultural student body brings to the life of the school.
