Early Days
The school was built in 1959 from funds provided by the Parish Community.
An Administration Block was constructed in 1981 and the school was refurbished again out of community funds.
Recent Times
In 2004 the school undertook a major buildings project that provided:
- A new Multipurpose Room used for music lessons, PFA uniform shop and Before and After School Care
- A new staff room and staff preparation area
- Two newly refurbished prep classrooms
- New toilet block
In 2007 two of the three classrooms in the north wing were gutted and refitted, creating a shared multimedia room between the two classrooms. In addition to this we installed Interactive Electronic Whiteboards in all of these classrooms. These whiteboards which are cutting edge technology replace the traditional blackboard with an interactive board that can not only be linked to the internet and student server but also have the capacity to be written on with an electronic pen. The pages produced can be saved as JPEGS and stored electronically for later use. The technology also allows our students to fully embrace the notion of multimedia through the use of digital cameras and webcams.
In 2007-2008 we spent a considerable amount of money replacing many of the existing computers in the school. Since then we have implemented an annual replacement cycle, whereby 20 odd computers are turned over each year. We now have in excess of 100 computers for our 284 students. Each pair of classroom has a multi media pod which can house up to 16 fully networked computers. During 2012 we purchased approximately 30 Mac pro lap top computers for our senior students. In February 2013 we took delivery of an additional 30 Mac pros for our middle school. From 2013 we will run a mac based program in years 3 -6.
In 2008 we fully gutted and refitted the remaining classroom in the north wing, creating a separate multimedia room for these students. This work included a gut out and refit of the current Art Room.
In 2009 work was completed on creating a Wellbeing and Learning Centre, housing 5 individual withdrawal rooms and 2 general work spaces. This area is staffed by a Student Services and Wellbeing Coordinator and 7 Support Staff who offer educational and emotional support for children in need.
In late 2009 the original school wing of 6 classrooms was demolished and work began on the multimillion dollar construction of a new double storey teaching block. This new building features spacious classrooms with multimedia pods and various breakout spaces adjoining the rooms. These rooms were opened in July 2010.
To complement this new building an outdoor learning space was constructed on the south side of the building. Each of the classrooms on the ground level has direct access to this space from the classroom. The works were started in September of 2010 and were completed in Jan 2011.
In August 2010 work began on constructing a new administration and 21st Century Library. This new building offers a large administration space, various administration offices, a parent resource room and a 21st century library. It also houses two storage areas and is internally connected to the new building opened in 2010. Works were completed in August 2011.
The north wing of the school contains a Wellbeing Centre and 4 recently refurbished rooms which house the Italian Room, Music Room, Art Room and a Resource Room.
In September 2013 works began on the refurbishment and redesign of the oval area. This space was developed to offer a good sized grass area for the children to play on and considerable interesting and ‘hands on spaces’ for them interact with. Works were completed in Nov 2013. The oval area was officially opened in February 2014
In 2020 brand new playground equipment was installed after a design process which included student voice.
