The school is committed to continual improvement in all forms of communication to members of its community.

A mix of both parent/teacher interviews and written reports is used. Our school has an active Fundraising Committee that actively involves community members in school activities. Our school runs annual community events such as Trivia Nights, Community B.B.Q’s, Melbourne Cup nights and Twilight School.
