Lifelong learning

Interschool sports are a key part of the St Patrick's Primary School calendar.

St Patrick’s Primary School is a vibrant and contemporary learning environment which celebrates many diverse cultural backgrounds.

Our catholic community of students, teachers and parents work together as one to inspire faith-filled, lifelong learners.

We promote educational excellence and nurture the growth and wellbeing of all students.

Our teachers continuously develop their professional skills to deliver a high quality and differentiated curriculum with evidence-based practices.

Our professional teachers are also complemented in the classroom by educational support officers who deliver a variety of learning practices for students to adapt and thrive in their learning environments.

St Patrick’s takes pride in developing strong leadership skills in our senior students.

They are immersed in a buddy program with our junior students, lead our school assemblies, represent our school in local community events such as ANZAC Day ceremonies, Rotary Public Speaking and are relied upon to welcome visitors to our school and assist with school tours.

The Year 6 students also take part in winter interschool sports, where they learn and consolidate supportive sportsmanship qualities between their teammates and opposition players.

This enables the students to begin to create a future network of friends in readiness for secondary school.

All students are involved in excursions and incursions throughout the year.

Our Year 4 to 6 students take part in our camp program which enhances resilience, respect for others and courage to take risks within a safe and supportive environment.

Recent renovations have occurred within our campus to include modern flexible learning spaces along with small break out areas to cater for alternate styles of learning and methods of teaching.
