Rules and policies are in place to make sure your child remains safe and well at school.
New policy library is now live. We're changing the way we deliver information online - making things simpler, faster and easier to use. On Wednesday, 14 December we moved where the policies are kept, to a policy library on our new platform.
Take some time to familiarise yourself as the policies may not be in the places you're used to. Please update any links and favorite pages as well.
For help accessing the new website contact the School and Community Information Office on DECinfo@det.nsw.edu.au.
Visit the NSW Department of Education’s policy library for all current operational policies.
Our school uses the department's School Community Charter to ensure all of our communication is collaborative and respectful.
Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options.
In NSW, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent and remain in school, employment or training until they turn 17.

If you are having difficulty getting your child to attend school regularly, you might like to talk to the school principal or the school counselor.
If your child has to be absent from school for any reason, including arriving late or leaving early, please either tell your child's teacher or the administrative assistant at our school, or explain the reason by phone, email, or write a note as soon as possible and within seven days.
As well as following the department’s operational policies, we have developed frameworks for our students in line with our school’s values and commitments.
