“Clearly, all the right ingredients are in place so that every student is supported, connected, engaged and experiencing success each day – no easy achievement,” she said.
Principal Rebecca Cooper said the school’s success was built on the hard work, dedication, and resilience of its students and teachers.

“Last year’s HSC results were amazing and are a testament to how hard we have all worked to focus on growth and student success.”
She said the school’s holistic approach to education, combined with the hard work and resilience of the students and teachers, has culminated in the school’s outstanding achievement.
