Principal's Message
I would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation for the commitment and care of Rural Fire NSW and emergency services right across the fire affected parts of the Hastings. Furthermore, thank you to those staff who took extra precaution to ensure our students safety came first.
Anti Bullying Plan Feedback
Campus Principals must ensure that their campus implements an anti-bullying plan that is developed collaboratively with students, school staff, parents, caregivers, and the community, and is reviewed every three years. The current anti-bullying plan was developed in 2017 and expires in 2020.
Sentral is an online parent portal that provides parents with 24/7 access to different aspects of your child's education.
Parent Portal has been designed for parents to be more informed and in control of information relating to their child's campus. This makes it very easy to monitor and manage all aspects of your child’s education and interaction with their campus. You can also make payments online. Within the portal, you can send absence notifications, view/access school reports, view newsletters and view attendance data.
