extra opportunities
For a small school we offer a surprising array of extra opportunities for children! Sports, music, art and chess - there is something for everyone.
Some of these happen during school time - during the day and at lunch break - and others are after school.
These are entirely voluntary and there may be additional costs.
sports
Our young people are very active and enjoy sports. We work with other schools in the area to place children on teams in hockey, futsal, basketball and netball.
We also have a group that participate in the schools orienteering series.
We welcome parents and caregivers who have interests or skills in particular sports to coach and/or form a new team.
