Each of our 33 schools, from Lithgow in the south to Baradine in the north, are part of the long and rich tradition of quality catholic schooling in this country. One in five students in Australia attend a catholic school and in the past twenty-four years the number of students in catholic schools has increased by 30 per cent.
Our schools are professional learning communities, relentlessly focused on calling forth and developing each student’s potential.
- Jenny Allen, Executive Director of Schools
Having contributed to the fabric of Australian society in the past, catholic schools continue to strive to partner with families and their local community to provide a holistic, quality education for students. Founded on the view that each human being is unique, possessing their individual gifts and talents, our schools are professional learning communities, relentlessly focused on calling forth and developing each student’s potential.
