25.01.2022 Before we know it, the school year will be finished and Santa Claus will be gearing up for his busiest night of the year. For some, the end of the school year ...is also the end of an era. 2021 is the year to take #TheNextStep. Whether your child is starting kindergarten, high school, or college next year, there are some changes ahead. This week, we're launching a series of weekly tips to help make this transition time easier for your child and your family. The #ReadyForSchool posts are colour-coded: green circle for kinder kiddos, orange circle for high school, and blue for college. #ReadyForSchool #TheNextStep #TasGovEducation #LearnersFirst

23.01.2022 Hello everyone We are really looking forward to welcoming our students back to school tomorrow. It has been a long time since the majority of us have all been together, learning at school. It will be an exciting day for us all - students and teachers, and all other school staff too. Wellbeing is the most important focus for us at the moment - so we will be doing everything we can to ensure that your children are ok, feeling welcome and safe, and that their friendships have ti...me to be rebuilt. Things will be different, and will need time to become 'normal' again. Don't forget our staggered finishing times. Lower finishing at 2:45, Middle at 2:55 and Upper at 3. Don't stress if you are running late, we'll keep the children in class until you arrive, just speak to the teacher at the gate. As I have said before - We are all in this together- and we continue to be. We are excited to see everyone tomorrow. We hope they sleep well and wake up early. We hope they are excited too. See more

05.01.2022 We thank everyone for their ongoing support during this challenging time. Keeping children at home, where possible, for their learning has helped to limit the s...pread of COVID-19, but we must now look to return students to classrooms.

From Tuesday 9 June 2020: *Year 7-10 students will return to school-based learning. Health and hygiene is still critical so we will continue to ensure extra safety measures are in place.
