SCHOOL LOGO
Our school logo was designed in 2010 after new school values were established in the years prior. This was a collaborative effort involving a student voice logo committee, staff and community as well as a design and print company. Through an extensive consultation process it was most evident that the environment was to be a feature. Our final logo disk was produced in November 2010 after a yearlong process.
