The School is what they call a high top school, it has year levels Preschool through to Year 10 (P to 10). There are 125 students in the school, not including the high school students. The high school shares the same campus and caters for years 11 & 12. As far as what gets taught here, it is the same as any school in Queensland, all teachers have to follow the same guidelines of curriculum and syllabus, it is just the delivery mode, how it is taught that changes. Lisa is teaching a year 2 - 3 composite class with 19 children. What these small schools lack in local area attractions compared to the Gold Coast, they make up for in very well resourced classrooms, smaller class sizes (approx. 1/2 the size of a class on the Gold Coast) and these kids also get more funding to go on trips to experience other cultures and cities.
