The school opened its doors to its first cohort of Year 7 students in 2020 to a purpose built, state of the art educational facility. At present, the school has over 700 Year 7 – 10 students and will add an additional year 7 cohort each year until 2025 when it will become a 7 – 12 school.

Our second stage is under construction as we speak and It is expected that once all building stages are complete the school will have a capacity of 1200 students.
The school is situated in Melbourne’s booming northern growth corridor approximately 23 kilometres from Melbourne and services the rapidly growing and aspirational communities of the Aston and Highlands Estates in Craigieburn, Greenvale and further north to Mickleham. The school has had significant demand for enrolments since opening- well beyond current capacity.
