Our principal and staff

Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.

Welcome from our principal

Welcome to our Senior Campus. We provide an inspiring and supportive environment for growth, both academically and personally. Students can explore diverse HSC pathways supported by high-quality programs tailored to individual goals. Our vision is to develop respectful and responsible students with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to thrive in their chosen pathway. Guided by our core values Respect, Responsibility, and Relationships and our motto ‘New Horizons’, we prepare young adults for success beyond school, whether through further education, training, or employment.

Students are supported by dedicated teachers and staff committed to helping them achieve their best.
