The K-6 school enrolment of 185 students includes 40% Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander children who are supported by an Aboriginal Education Officer.

The school is comprised of 7 mainstream classes, an ED support class and two MC support classes. There are two itinerant teams for students with hearing and vision disabilities based at the school.
