Students 'Voice' is encouraged through the appointment of Student Leaders, Students Councillors, Faction Captains, surveys, as well as other leadership opportunities. Student Councillors meet regularly with Administration staff to bring forward issues and ideas identified by the student population.
Our P&C is an energetic and enthusiastic team who are committed to supporting the school in many varied ways such as running our health promoting canteen three days a week, fundraising for Senior Camps, Playgrounds and resources for the Early Childhood area.
