The campus is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Gibbons Street in Oatlands. It lies 23 kilometres northwest of the Sydney CBD, at the crossroads of the Parramatta CBD. Adding to the aesthetic appeal of the campus is its adornment of manicured gardens.

The secondary school students in our campus learn in a blended learning environment where we continue to have classrooms for face-to-face delivery as well as collaborative learning environments, where online teaching is facilitated. The Learning Centre is the nucleus of learning for our students and the Sydney Campus has 3 of these learning hubs that cater for Stages 4, 5 and 6 students. These spaces support self-directed learning and our vision of developing ‘Life Ready’ students. The primary campus consists of Staged classes and although having physical classrooms for lesson delivery, it is an equally dynamic learning environment where classrooms function as progressive learning hubs.

Our campus proactively responds to technology by not only embracing current and emerging innovations but arguably, leading the way in its creative and purposeful use. Here at the Sydney campus, Digital Literacy claims a significant place in our students’ graduate skills and our technology-rich learning environments are commensurate with this. Moreover, each student is provided with a laptop, they also have access to a sophisticated Learning Management System, Canvas, which boasts a wealth of resources.

Our school culture finds firm expression in values of respect and mutual trust, in relationships with the community, teachers and the students. We nurture an environment that is conducive to growth and fulfilment — both academic and personal. We prioritise communication and there is always an open-door policy where staff feel valued and appreciated.

The school has moved on from the antiquated pedagogies that only served the needs of the past, teaching and learning in a climate that supports new and innovative methods. New staff to the school never feel unsupported as, over and above in-house support for staff, we also draw on our Teacher Academy, which provides excellent professional development courses to empower our staff. Our supportive networks are a strength that is hard to find in many educational settings. We are people-centred and the well-being of both students and teachers are of the utmost importance.
