Our school is a dynamic community with a deliberate intention to create the best possible growing and learning environment.

We have approximately 1,000 students across three schools supported by more than 150 teachers and a number of associate teachers.

In addition, we have a professional administrative team, including grounds, maintenance and catering, who are all focused on ensuring students are safe, happy and supported.

The school is led by Mark Turner, Head of School and is supported by a Deputy Head of School and Senior Leadership Team. In addition, school prefects elected from among our student body have a variety of leadership roles on our campuses.
