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.

Unity is strength!
Our location in the multi-cultural northern suburb of Girrawheen, means that our students reflect the diverse cultural nature of the surrounding areas. The student population represents a range of backgrounds:
- Africa
- Australia
- Aboriginal Australia

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