History

WebPartZone1_1
PublishingPageContent

Our school opened in January 2008 with about 90 students on our first day. We are positioned in the growth corridor between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.  Our community has now stabilised and we currently have approximately 900 students enrolled. 


Our design features are innovative, smart, and environmentally sensitive:

  • All teaching areas are digitally rich (Interactive whiteboards, data projectors, laptops for students and teachers, wireless access)

  • Flexibility and functionality of all spaces (moveable walls, multiple cable and wireless data outlets, kitchenette/ science teaching spaces in classrooms)

  • Building orientation encourages natural ventilation

  • Use of natural controlled lighting for classrooms & general buildings

  • A combination of dimmable fluorescent lights / daylight controls

  • Storm water reuse – stored in tanks for toilet flushing

  • Storm water quality improvement devices into the design


Our values

We aim to be a family orientated school that offers the best of the past (focus on Literacy and Numeracy, full uniform compliance, high expectations on behaviour) with the best of the future (digital classrooms with innovative and engaging teaching). Our school is founded on the three values of RESPECT, INTEGRITY and EXCELLENCE.



Our Site and Access

We have 11 gently sloping hectares.
Vehicle access is off Old Coach Road. We also have a number of pedestrian and push bike access points along our boundary to encourage less vehicular traffic.



Transport Provisions

We offer two off road public carparks, including disabled parking. Surfside Buslines and two local Day Care Centres offer student transport. Please contact these providers directly for details.
