We are a large, co-educational secondary school catering to students from Years 7 to 12, with an anticipated enrolment of approximately 1800 students in 2025. Our school draws from a wide range of Cairns suburbs, with strong connections to the Manoora, Manunda, and Mooroobool communities. We are proud of our culturally diverse student body, with approximately 35% identifying as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and others from African and Nepalese backgrounds through local settlement programs. Our school is committed to inclusive education and serves as a support centre for students with disabilities, including visual, hearing, speech, and language impairments. Staff and students work together to create a welcoming and supportive environment where all learners can thrive.
