[2] The school is operated by the NSW Department of Education; the principal is Mark Robinson.

[1] The first student intake was in 1968 with a single grade (known at the time as 'Form 1') which formally graduated from the school in 1973.

Over ensuing years, the school has grown in enrolments to its current level, necessitating expansion of the campus and construction of additional facilities.

The four houses are named Maluka (blue), Akuna (yellow), Iluka (red) and Tingara (green).

Students can win 'house points' through various activities including receiving merit certificates and participating in school carnivals.
