our principal's message

Picture
It is with great excitement, and appreciation for being given the privilege to serve, that I join the St Mary's Catholic School community as Principal in 2021.  Last year, a routine School Review process identified St Mary's as a caring and collaborative learning community that is fully committed to the development of each child spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, physically and socially. St Mary's has a strong identity as a faith filled Catholic community where we strive each day to live our motto of Learning, Justice and Love. Our students are well supported by dedicated teachers and support staff, our committed Parish Priest, Fr Greg Bellamy and his assistant priests, and a welcoming and enthusiastic parent community. 
St Mary's Catholic School is deeply committed to the provision of a contemporary curriculum that strives for excellence for all learners and this is evident in strong academic results. All students have access to an extensive range of digital resources that foster creativity, thinking and innovation. Students are fully involved in co-curricular activities and committed to social justice outreach initiatives.  Our students are happy learners who have access to attractive and contemporary learning spaces and grounds.
It is our intention that this site provides you with a genuine sense of our commitment to faith and learning. I look forward to getting to know our existing parents as well as welcoming prospective parents and friends, for a tour of this wonderful school community.  
With every good wish for a safe, successful and happy 2021.


Gayle Stratton
Principal
