Behind our striking blue wren, you will note our spacious and welcoming school grounds consisting of many natural play spaces for exploration and creative play.
Our Nature Conservation Area consisting of a shallow and seasonal creek is our Nature Playground space – utilised for teaching and learning and free play. Our students conduct Water Watch activities in our creek and work closely with Landcare to maintain creek health.
We have a student created edible garden, Indigenous garden, butterfly garden, mud kitchen and a range of loose parts and items to encourage curious and creative play.
When appropriate we tap into our immediate environment to offer rich, real world connected learning for our students.
