Learnathon
Our wildly successful Learnathon is back in 2025 with the help of GJ Gardiner Homes.
This year students will get the chance to win great spot prizes every time someone sponsors a tile on their learnathon page.

2024/25 Project - Sports Courts.
We are very excited to announce that our major project for 2024 / 2025 is to resurface the school sports courts. This project will cost $30,000 but will make a huge difference to both the look of the school and the usability of the sports courts by both students and the community. We are already on our way to the goal with $8000 raised by the Learnathon, $1500 from the Spring Fling, $1200 from Pet Day and $4074 from the Quiz Night. Watch this space as we look for major sponsors to help add to the fund raising total.
Total Raised: $17,182 of $30,000


2024 Learnathon
Our 2024 Learnathon is now complete and thanks to you we raised over $8000.
This is a huge result for the first ever event and we look forward to taking the 'learnings' from this forward to an even bigger and better Learnathon in 2025.
