Our extra-curricular highlights

Creative and performing arts

Our drama, music and art programs help students be creative and express themselves. They can join in music, dance, drama and visual arts activities.

Environment Group

Students in our Environment Group help care for our school grounds and learn how to look after the natural world. They tend to our vegetable gardens, care for the chickens and fish pond, and take pride in keeping our school green, healthy and thriving.

Trips and excursions

Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.

Carnivals

Students can build their confidence, resilience and school spirit by taking part in our swimming, cross country and athletics carnivals. These events encourage participation, teamwork and healthy competition, with opportunities to represent the school at higher levels.

Cultural Engagement Activities

Through cultural engagement activities, students deepen their understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and perspectives. These experiences build respect, connection and pride, helping students see themselves as active contributors to a vibrant and inclusive community.

Leadership and skill building

Students can develop their thinking, communication and teamwork skills through public speaking and student leadership opportunities. They also have the chance to compete in local and state events.
