Through the provision of one-to-one devices for all students in Years 3 to 6, and shared devices readily available in the lower years, every child has access to a variety of teaching and learning environments to ensure equitable access for all regardless of their entry point.

Holy Cross School lives and breathes its Catholic identity as a place of welcoming and belonging for all. With two teams of highly skilled School Officers (Team Wellbeing and Team Learning) teachers pride themselves on being able to offer an authentic wholly inclusive curriculum ensuring every child can meet their full potential in all facets of their schooling. A proud fully accredited Dyslexia School, Holy Cross School has the best interests of every child at the forefront of its growth and development.
