We are proud to be registered for the National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence (NDA). It is an important day where we will join other Australian school communities standing together against bullying and violence.
On Friday 19 March 2021 we will continue to help create positive change for students, staff and the school climate.

The National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence is an important day in our school calendar to say, ‘Bullying. No Way!’ Our school is taking action to empower its students to be part of the solution when addressing bullying in our school community.

Clean Up Australia Day  -  Friday 5 March
This Friday 5 March we as a school community are supporting Clean Up Australia Day.

There has been a surge in single-use disposable items, such as takeaway coffee cups, food packaging, masks, and sanitised wipes; all of which are polluting our local parks, bushland, streets, waterways, and beaches. In fact, research reveals more than 1 in 3 (34%) Australian households self-identified as producing more packaging waste during lockdown periods in 2020 compared to previous years, and more than 1 in 2 (55%) reported they are now more concerned about product packaging waste than they were in 2019. Clean Up Australia Chairman, Pip Kiernan, says now is the time for all Australians to Step Up to Clean Up, to help protect and conserve their local environments. “Last year saw immense disruption to our lives, not least of all to our local environments which have been impacted by increased uptake of single-use, disposable items,” said Ms Kiernan.

All students are asked to bring in a pair of gloves, as we clean up areas in and around our school. All students will be closely supervised as they participate in this important environmental, community event.
