What do we study?

Like all schools we need to follow the guidelines from Education Queensland.  Our teachers then develop interesting lessons to teach us what we need to know.  Because we are a New Basics school, we produce Rich Tasks

New Basics
This is how new basics is described by Education Queensland;
"The New Basics Project is a bold and exciting undertaking by Education Queensland to prepare our students for the future. It deals with new student identities, new economies and workplaces, new technologies, diverse communities and complex cultures. 
The New Basics is about improving the learning outcomes of our students. It allows community members, teachers and students to work together to ensure that the richness and relevance of students' academic and social growth is enhanced."
