Thank you for considering our beautiful school set within the attractive Adelaide Hills community.
St Catherine’s School is a parish school with a big heart. We are a connected community that is welcoming and inclusive. It’s a place where students, families and staff enjoy a strong sense of belonging and togetherness.
St Catherine’s School is inspired by the Dominican tradition and we are part of the Adelaide Hills Parish. Our Catholic faith is interwoven into who we are as a school community and it strongly underpins our school values of Respect, Commitment, Sustainability, Honesty and Compassion. Informed by our faith, our values are embedded in all we do.
What student and families notice is the strength of community, our commitment to ecology and the caring way that our students interact with each other and the staff.
We believe in knowing each child personally. Our teachers design and deliver an outstanding academic curriculum and extra curricular activities to unlock each child's potential. This can only be achieved in a connected environment such as St Catherine's School.
Our supportive and inclusive community also nurtures student wellbeing thereby inspiring them to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
I look forward to meeting with you to further discuss your child’s education at St Catherine’s School and welcoming you as a part of our playgroup, school transition program or as a student from Reception to Year 6.
