Our school has a strong commitment to guiding students in the most valuable and safe way to use technology as a learning tool, with all students from Prep to Year 3 having access to class sets of laptops and iPads and students from Years 4 to 6 participating in our one to one iPad program.  We promote a healthy, active lifestyle, offering many and varied sporting opportunities.
