School organisation

Our school is organised in four key stage groups based on the NSW Department of Education and Training's Curriculum framework:

  • Early Stage 1 (Kindergarten)
  • Stage 1 (Year 1 & 2)
  • Stage 2 (Year 3 & 4)
  • Stage 3 (Year 5 & 6)  

Classes are organised as parallel classes (mixed ability) rather than streamed classes (A class, B class, C class)

Multi-age (composite classes) are found across the school according to the numbers enrolled in each stage.
