Students come from diverse groups where languages other than English are used at home or in the community. These bilingual and multilingual students represent an increasing proportion of many school populations.

At our school these students who have been identified as needing to develop their English Language skills are supported through an ESOL programme that helps children to access the curriculum successfully. 

The school desires to keep close communication with parents. Parents are welcome to attend the school assembly.

Should you wish to volunteer, there is always work to be done around the school, such as gardening, photocopying, book maintenance, dusting of library shelves etc. If you can contribute in this way please see the Principal or school office manager.
 

Friends of Southcity: This is a group of parents who serve the school in a variety of ways. Their focus is on supporting the school and helping to build community. They organise activities such as prayer meetings, new parent coffee mornings, some fundraising, and provide innovative support where they see a need.

School Board: The Board meet on a monthly basis. These are open meetings which can be attended by parents or other interested parties. Watch the newsletter for notice of meetings.

Homework: Parents are asked to supervise their children with homework and special assignments. Homework is generally set four nights a week.
