Principal's Message

Welcome to Rosehill Intermediate School's Website

The information contained on this website will familiarise parents and children with some details of school procedures and activities.

Rosehill Intermediate School has unique characteristics and strengths that are particularly appropriate for meeting the needs of emerging adolescents. The focus of each programme acknowledges the special nature of the age group we work with. Children of this age are capable of taking a leading role in their own learning, they are capable of making decisions, and realising consequences.

We have high expectations of pupils, and they are quite simply stated

• Get involved in learning opportunities

• Encourage others in their educational pursuits

• Always do the very best that you can

Regards

Maria White (Principal)
