Like all NSW public schools, we promote the healthy development of students through:

  • school programs and practices that protect and promote health and safety
  • supporting individual students who need help with health issues
  • providing first aid and temporary care of students who become unwell or who have an accident at school.

Student wellbeing

Like all NSW public schools, we provide safe learning and teaching environments to encourage healthy, happy, successful and productive students.

The department is committed to creating quality learning opportunities for children and young people. These opportunities support wellbeing through positive and respectful relationships and fostering a sense of belonging to the school and community.

The Wellbeing Framework for Schools helps schools support the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development of students and allows them to connect, succeed and thrive throughout their education.

Positive Behaviour for Learning

At our school, we use Positive Behaviour for Learning – a whole-school approach for creating a positive, safe and supportive school climate where students can learn and develop. Our whole school community works together to establish expected behaviours and teach them to all students.

Student Representative Council (SRC)

Our SRC is a group of students from Years 2-6 elected by their fellow students, along with the Year 6 School Leadership Team. The SRC members represent all students in the school and organise ways for students to participate and contribute to their school community. The SRC also facilitates leadership and decision making by all students in the school.

The SRC host many events during the year including discos and fundraisers and supporting local initiatives.

Meetings will be held fortnightly (odd weeks of the school calendar) on Thursday morning at 8:30am.
