HDC School Planning Survey  

This is the time of year where we engage with families to input on our School Development Plan, Budget and Fees for the upcoming 2025-2026 school year. Parent input and voice is extremely important and helps to inform our decision making as we look to next year. 

We presented this information at our March School Council Meeting. The link below will take you to the presentation that was shared at the meeting so that you are able to access information relevant to the school planning survey.
