Analysis of the 2022 results showed the school was the Fraser Coast region’s best performer in the Year 5 and 9 cohorts.

Principal Joe Wright said the school had maintained the top position in NAPLAN performance for at least eight years.

“I’m really proud of our students and teachers, a lot of effort has gone into getting those results,” he said,

Mr Wright said that while the school was proud of the results, the focus remained on providing a well-rounded education for students.

“That means we spend a great deal of time developing attributes that will help students be successful in the long term and this often includes skills that can’t be measured in tests.”
