Our school became an Independent Public School in 2015 and has since been leading academic performance from years 7-12 through the recruitment and development of highly effective program coordinators, teachers and support staff.

Our Year 9 GAT English students have produced an outstanding collection of original graphic novels as part of their recent English unit on belonging and displacement. Following an inspiring hands-on workshop with acclaimed Australian graphic novelist James Foley, students explored poetry centred on themes of belonging and displacement before transforming a key idea from their chosen poem into a completely new context and medium. Through the creative power of the graphic novel, they demonstrated exceptional insight, imagination, and storytelling, showcasing not only their understanding of the original texts but also their ability to communicate powerful ideas through words and images. We are incredibly proud of their creativity and the high standard of work they have produced!
Here are some samples of their fantastic pieces!
