Why choose us?

Visit us before you enrol

Starting a new school is a big step. We're here to help make the transition a smooth and positive experience for every student and their family.

Enrolment interviews are conducted with a deputy principal for all new students starting mid year. We offer a school tour at this time, an orientation to our communication tools, and get to know new students to best place them in a class and support their social, emotional and academic needs as they start at our school. A kindergarten open day and transition program are held for kindergarten families to provide an orientation to our school. These events help you and your child feel prepared for starting school.

Meet our friendly staff, explore our school facilities, and see what makes our school a great place to learn.
