Our extra-curricular highlights
Sporting opportunities
Students have the opportunity to participate in different sports as part of the PDHPE curriculum. Students may also be selected to participate in sporting activities offered by The School Sport Unit, including Boccia, Come-and-Try Athletics, Multi-Sport days, swimming carnivals and Tenpin Bowling.
Creative and performing arts
Our school choir and dance group allow students to express themselves through music. They are able to experience the thrill of performing before an audience in shows and concerts such as the Synergy Dance Festival and the Penrith Eisteddfod.
Trips and excursions
Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.
