In September 1988 during the Australian Bicentenary, a time capsule was constructed by Design and Technology teacher Frank Murphy and his Vocational Education students.

Currently, Environment and Life Sciences (EaLs) education at the school is the only recognised sustainability curriculum course approved in Western Australia.

The course is enriched by strong partnerships with a range of universities, government and community organisations, and it is pioneering high school sustainability education in Western Australia.

The program also streams into upper school WACE units and VET courses specific to football for university or TAFE placements.
