St Mary's Catholic Academy

St. Mary’s Catholic Academy is a caring faith community. Our mission is to provide an outstanding whole-person education through which all are challenged to grow in wisdom, understanding, self-esteem and closeness to God.

Respecting the uniqueness of each person is central to the caring nature of the school and a reflection of the Gospel message of love. A strong and supportive pastoral system continues to care for all and helps build people’s self-esteem.

The school strives to be a community where high quality and enriching relationships are built. Tolerance and the valuing of others are key points of daily life. We seek to manage every aspect of school life, with justice, for the common good of all.

We challenge all people to use their God-given gifts to achieve excellence and make significant progress in their learning. Opportunities exist for aesthetic, performing and creative talents to be nurtured.

The school’s distinctive curriculum seeks to provide the experiences that help create a community of enthusiastic and increasingly independent learners. The attainment of all students is a matter of pride, and good results across all ages and abilities reflect this enthusiasm. The school, designated a Mathematics and Computing Specialist College, aims to develop innovative and high quality teaching and learning across the curriculum.

St. Mary’s Catholic Academy provides an extended and enriching curriculum. Using creative and innovative teaching styles, incorporating developing technologies, the school seeks to challenge and support all students to achieve their individual potential. We promote the use of Mathematics and ICT across our curriculum.
