School Captains

The school appoints two School Captains and two Vice Captains. At the end of Year 5 they are required to write an application addressing criteria relevant to the position . They then present to an interview panel consisting of a team of teachers and the principal. Following the interview, the children undertake a collaborative problem solving task ensuring that every child can share their skills and strengths.

Assembly Presentations

During the term, there are two Senior and two Junior assemblies led and facilitated by the students. This provides all the students from Prep through to Year 6 with the opportunity to develop their public speaking skills and the organisational skills equired to run such events. The assemblies are a celebration and sharing of student learning.

Grounds Beautification and Landcare

A group of students are involved in supporting teachers ensuring that the school grounds are well maintained. Their ideas and hands on support help to keep our outdoor learning spaces looking great.
