Classroom Teachers 2026
Our classes are grouped into teams and each of these teams is known by the name of a tree. These teams support students:
- Allowing students to be taught and well-known within a small team
- Providing a sense of belonging within a smaller group
- Working together in a range of academic and sporting endeavours
- Having a lead teacher who can offer another level of support
- Allowing teachers to plan together in a small group to meet student needs
