Welcome back to 2024!

Great news! Back to School payments have returned for 2024, with every preschool and school-aged child in the Territory eligible for $200 to put towards educational items and services. From books, bags, calculators and much more, the $200 can cover a wide range of useful items and services that will set students up for success in 2024.

Families are encouraged to contact schools directly to redeem the $200 by the end of Term 1.

2024-2027 Strategic Planning - Planning for their future:

Following our school review in Term 4 2023, staff and school council have met to examine a suite of signature strategies  that can assist the school to continue to improve student outcomes, school environment and community engagement. The school review recommendations inform a four-year explicit improvement agenda for continuous review and adjustment along the implementation journey. Each year's annual school improvement plan is based on the EIA.  Students, staff and families and the wider school community are encouraged share ideas, as we share our learning.
