Facilities

The school has modern learning spaces and is extensively resourced with laptops, tablets and smartboards. Musical facilities allow students to participate in band tutorials, as well as sing in the school choir. The extensive library provides a number of programs including Early Bird Reading, Homework Help and The Premiers Reading Challenge. There are also a chess club, card club, sports, ICT and drama programs available.

Curriculum

The Religious Education Curriculum is supported by the resource student text To Know, Worship and Love, which was first produced in the Archdiocese of Melbourne.

The school offers an "enrichment programme" for those students who require an extension in a particular subject and an "additional needs support programme" for those that need extra support in their learning.

School ethos

The school's vision is "To promote high expectations and inspired learning through informed and effective pedagogy as One in Christ".

Its core mission is to "witness the Gospel values to the children in our care and to ensure that each child develops to their fullest potential spiritually, academically, physically, socially and culturally".
