WELCOME

Welcome to St Therese’s Catholic Primary School, where every child is known, valued and nurtured.
At St Therese’s, we are proud to offer a vibrant, inclusive learning environment grounded in Gospel
values and inspired by the example of St Therese of Lisieux—our patron saint of kindness, simplicity
and love in action. As a Catholic school, our mission is to foster the spiritual, academic, social and
emotional growth of every student, empowering them to become compassionate, confident learners
and active contributors to their community.
We are a school with heart—a place where families matter, learning is purposeful, and each child is encouraged to shine. Our dedicated staff provide high-quality teaching and learning experiences that cater to diverse learning styles and needs. With specialist programs in Music, Visual Art, Japanese and Health & Physical Education, as well as opportunities such as school camps, workshops, and after-school dance, students at St Therese’s thrive both in and beyond the classroom.
We are proud to offer an all-inclusive fee structure that supports accessibility for families, including generous discounts for concession card holders, swimming lessons, visiting performances, Life Education, school camps, excursions, and transport to local events like Under 8s Day are all included, allowing every student to engage in a full and rich educational journey.
At the heart of our school is community. Through initiatives like our Wednesday Morning Meetings, student council, and strong parent partnerships, student voice and belonging are not just encouraged—they are celebrated.
Thank you for considering St Therese’s as the place where your child’s learning journey can grow in faith, excellence, and joy. We invite you to come and experience the warmth and spirit of our school community.
Warm regards,
Mrs Courtney McVean
