School is ok. School fees are high but some classrooms look poor and lack modern technology. Tuckshop is overpriced and bad food. ICT department controls entirety of the computer (to the point where you can’t change your wallpaper).
Pros
School is well resourced
nice facilities
convenient location
excursions and camps are great and mostly included in school fees.
most teachers are good
high school curriculum is interesting and varied
laptop is included in school fees
Cons
Little support for children with additional needs
lack of cultural diversity
primary music program has no bands like larger state schools
sport opportunities are limited by size of primary/high school. Touch football, volleyball, swimming, basketball, soccer, rugby, netball, hockey and tennis are the main sports.
Lack of investment in student wellbeing. Resources are surface level and there appears to be no particular commitment to do anything in this space.
