It has comprehensive and relevant academic, social and physical programs with a strong emphasis on improving student literacy and numeracy. The school has excellent facilities for its students that include well-resourced and technologically advanced classrooms for both day-to-day work and specialist activities such as art, music and computers. A well-stocked library, set in an attractive heritage building and two smaller rooms for small group learning, add to the school's teaching and learning areas. The school is situated on the banks of the Billabong Creek. It's spacious gardens and grounds include two large playing fields, a highly utilised and shaded play equipment area, a tennis and basketball court, an outdoor amphitheatre, and a large covered outdoor learning area (COLA).

The infants block, staff room and new classroom were officially opened by His Excellency Sir Roden Cutler on the 26th of September, 1967.
