Spaces to explore
Infants
Kindergarten to Year 2 students enjoy a variety of bespoke play spaces purposefully designed to support their learning and development. All our play spaces are designed to promote active break times.
Our brand new all-weather playground helps our students to develop their gross motor skills, and eye coordination and core strength, all essential to effective learning. It also provides wonderful opportunities to develop communication and social skills as children negotiate taking turns and pushing their limits within a safe risk-taking environment.
Our fabulous octagonal sandpits are a popular place for our Infants students. With buckets and spades galore, there are unlimited opportunities for digging and creative play.
Nestled amongst trees and shrubs is the secret garden; a beautiful place to enjoy lunch or a special game with friends.
Primary
Our students in Years 3 to 6 have a wonderful variety of spaces to run and play. All these areas have been designed to promote development and activity.
Children love to climb and our skyclimber climbing frame allows our students to push their climbing skills, improve core strength and fine-tune their hand and eye coordination.
There is plenty of space to play soccer, football and cricket during lunchtime with access to our grassy fields.
Multiple handball squares provide our students with space to play a friendly (or highly competitive) game of handball.
Our undercover ping pong table is a popular space for our primary students during recess and lunch. There is always interest in a game of ping pong, which not only assists our students to develop their hand and eye coordination but a sense of good sportsmanship and camaraderie.
Building is currently underway for an all-weather soccer field. This will be utilised by all our students at various time, and will be a great addition to our amazing facilities. Building is set to be completed later in 2023.
Creative Spaces
Our Junior School features a number of purpose-built spaces where creativity thrives and children are given the opportunity to develop their God-given gifts.
- Our art room, beautiful and light-filled;
- Our music room, full of instruments and sound;
- Our dance rooms, with tarkett flooring, mirrors and bars.
Junior Library
Our Junior Library is a dynamic, vibrant and engaging space for quiet and collaborative learning. Our well-stocked library is carefully curated by our Teacher Librarian to grow a love of reading, whilst catering to the wide range of interests of our Prep to Year 6 students.
Our library isn't just used for weekly library lessons and regular book borrowing. The library is a very popular destination at lunchtime. Students can be found playing a strategic game of chess, a board game with friends, or simply enjoying a good book.
