Building Confident Learners For Life

With approximately 300 students from Kindergarten to Year 6, our Junior School provides a welcoming, nurturing environment where every child is known, valued and encouraged to achieve their personal best.

We believe the primary years lay the foundation for lifelong learning. Our students are challenged to think critically, solve problems creatively, develop independence and build the confidence to embrace new opportunities.

Our dedicated teachers provide individualised support, ensuring every child is inspired to grow academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually. Modern learning spaces, innovative teaching practices and a strong focus on student wellbeing create an environment where children feel safe, supported and ready to thrive.

 

A Rich and Engaging Curriculum

Students experience a broad curriculum that develops strong foundations in literacy and numeracy while encouraging curiosity and a love of learning. Learning areas include:

  • English

  • Science and Technology
  • History
  • Geography
  • Creative Arts
  • Christian Development
  • Personal Development, Health and Physical Education (PDHPE)

Beyond the classroom, students enjoy a wide range of co-curricular opportunities, sporting programs and leadership experiences that help build character, resilience and strong relationships.
