A year at our school
Yearly Excursions:
Our students had the unforgettable opportunity to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 2025, experiencing breathtaking views and building confidence through this exciting adventure.
Our students had unforgettable experiences in Sydney, including watching the Back to the Future Musical at the Lyric Theatre, exploring Taronga Zoo, taking tours of Allianz Stadium and the Sydney Cricket Ground, visiting the Sydney Aquarium and Madame Tussauds, enjoying the rides at Luna Park, discovering the wonders of the Australian Museum, and sailing on a tall ship around Circular Quay.
Whether we visit Lake Ainsworth, Coffs Adventure Centre, The Great Aussie Bush Camp or Lake Keepit - We ensure students have memorable and exciting excursions alongside other local small schools.
For two terms each year, our students participate in professional coach-delivered tennis lessons that focus on developing fundamental skills, improving technique, and encouraging a passion for the sport. In addition to tennis, we also offer swimming lessons, gymnastics, and athletics programs, all designed to promote physical fitness, coordination, and confidence. These activities provide fun, engaging opportunities for students to stay active, develop teamwork, and build sportsmanship across a variety of sports and skills.
Representative Sport:
Our students eagerly participate in a variety of sporting competitions at both regional and state levels, making the most of the comprehensive sporting pathways provided by the Department of Education. These pathways offer structured opportunities for students to develop their skills, compete against peers from diverse schools, and experience the thrill of high-level sport.
Throughout the year, we also collaborate with other small schools in our region with termly sporting competitions and combined school days. These events promote friendly competition and allow our students to build friendships, develop teamwork, and enjoy a sense of belonging within a wider sporting community. By engaging in these activities, our students improve their physical fitness, learn valuable life skills such as perseverance and fair play, and foster a lifelong love of sport.
Our school offers year-round music and instrument lessons, providing students with expert instruction and personalised guidance throughout the entire school year. Experienced music teachers help students develop their skills, build confidence, and foster a lifelong love of music in a supportive and inspiring environment.
