History
The school was established in 1978.
In 2010, development began for a multi-million dollar hall, which took over a year to build.
In July 2012,[2] the school was awarded "school of the week", when it was visited by John Schluter, weatherman of Channel 7 News, and an "animated sign" saying MSS, the school's initials, welcomed him in the Channel 7 helicopter. The sign was featured on 7News.[3]
