Education

​"For us, the essential purpose of education is to draw out each pupil's potential, gifts and creativity. The task of the Catholic School, it's teachers and trustees is that of shaping full human beings who will be able to get the most out of life and who will be able to give the most of life."

​Cardinal Williams (Bishop of Wellington). 

Catholic Character

Our school has a special character because it is a part of the Catholic Community. We work in partnership with the parish and the wider Church Community as well as the parents.

All children in the school are guided on their Christian spiritual journey.  ​The National Religious Education Curriculum is taught daily.
