St Catherine’s Primary School – Lalor West
St Catherine’s Primary School is a Child Safe School promoting the safety, wellbeing and inclusion of all children. We are an inclusive faith community that values the partnership between home and school.
At St Catherine’s, we empower our students to be curious and creative thinkers, in an inclusive and engaging learning environment fostering educational excellence, celebrating the development and growth of all children – spiritually, physically and intellectually. We are a community dedicated to creating a collaborative culture of learning and teach using the science of learning to engage all our students with explicit instruction and where students learn to problem solve, think critically and be creative.
Our motto ‘The Lord is my Light’ reflects the Gospel values of responding to anyone we meet with an open heart – being Christ like in all we do and say. As a community, we celebrate the traditions of the Catholic Church and live the Gospel Values. We pay attention to the gifts that each student brings and we respect the uniqueness of everyone.
Three expectations of I show RESPECT, I act SAFELY & I take RESPONSIBILITY reflects the identity of St Catherine’s Primary School, and these are taught through our Positive Behaviours for Learning framework.
Open communication and collaboration are valued, involving parents, students, and staff in decision-making.
“Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.”
