The school has a wireless internet network, a computer lab, and interactive technologies in every classroom.
Principal Megan Avery said students regularly engage in learning programs using smartboards, laptops and iPads.
"Touch-screen technologies have introduced a new generation of educational tools that afford creative use and instant access to a wealth of online resources and knowledge," Ms Avery said.
"Kindergarten students enrolled for 2015 have already used the iPads during their 10-week transition program, helping them to develop a sense of confidence using technology while having fun."
The school has recently installed two 75-inch interactive LED touchscreens, which incorporate the latest in LED display and multi-touch technologies.
There are plans to install an interactive LED touchscreen in every classroom.
Ms Avery said the school believes that by incorporating modern technology into its curriculum, it is nurturing life-long learning in their students.
"We are pleased that next year we will have a technology specialist teacher who will be focusing on the continual development of our staff and students' knowledge and skills in technology," Ms Avery said.
Next year, the school will offer technology workshops to the wider community.
