I use to run the school. Back in grade 4 in 2016 i was the new kid no one knew. One day i brought a soccer ball the school. Everything changed. The whole school played soccer on the oval and i changed it from a rugby school to a soccer school. I ran an after school care soccer club with a teacher teaching kids older than me how to play soccer. I was most popular and even had multiple girlfriends at my age. I did the whip and nae nae on stage and i was praised. I was the age champion for swimming. I had to leave after 1 year tho after my family moved to brisbane. My school shirt was signed by so many people that i had to bring 2. I am a legend of the school and will always remember my reign over the greatest school of all time at age 10.
Used to be a great school but has sadly gone downhill. Bullying is an ongoing issue. Wouldn’t recommend
If I could give 0 stars I would. To say this school has a bullying issue is just the beginning of the lack of respect the deputy’s and principal have for the parents who call with concerns. You get spoken to like you are the issue.
My eldest had no support from the school throughout her learning issue journey, when she got messages from other students telling her to kill herself there was little to know action and the only person who called me back to try and help was a deputy who was covering and I quote ” said he wouldn’t stay on even if they paid him more”
I have kept my other daughter at the school for the simple fact she has a best friend there – however now she is being bullied online and at the school and the deputy has told me its because my daughter wasn’t included in a book character group with other girls ( which came from the girl tormenting her)
Lets use some common sense here and read through the lines.
Blaming the kid who is being bullied and making out they maybe need to toughen up isn’t going to fix the issue. Its just creates more.
I would not recommend any one send their child there. Find a better school with a better leader….
School was great 7-10 years ago. Now it is terrible. Terrible administration, teachers who have been there too long and can speak to the children horribly. Bullying is rampant with both students and teachers and there is no extra support for students or decent communication. The great staff have left and there is no longer any pride in this school. There are plenty of better schools in the 4211 area, do your best to get out of catchment or invest in private schooling.
It use to be a great school, a small community mind set now just like most schools has become about $$$$$$$ amd let’s change everything, the tradition that use to be in place are gone and if you take them up with the principal you get the well at my old school, I wish I could recommend this school but I don’t
