About our school

Welcome to Holy Spirit Primary School. Holy Spirit is a welcoming, nurturing and vibrant community where our children are at the centre of all we do. Every child is known, valued and supported so they are inspired to think deeply, act with justice, compassion and hope.

We strive for excellence and encourage every child to achieve great things when they are immersed in an environment that encourages curiosity, creativity and persistence. Our teachers strive to ensure they deliver engaging learning experiences where each child develops a love of learning and flourishes throughout their primary schooling.

We recognise that our parents are the primary educators of their children . We value the importance of strong home/school links and we promote a sense of connectedness with our families. Families are welcomed as active partners in school life contributing to events, celebrations and our collective vision.

We welcome you and your child to come and see our school where every child is known and are given many opportunities to ‘Shine their Light’

Principal's Message

Thank you for your interest in enrolling your child at Holy Spirit School. I am honored to be the Principal of such a welcoming community who work together to ensure each child grows and develops, spiritually, academically, emotionally and socially, reaching their full potential.

Our curriculum is diverse and contemporary, giving access to quality and meaningful learning experiences. Our dedicated teachers are committed to delivering high quality explicit teaching that supports the needs of each child.

Ensuring the care, wellbeing and protection of each child is paramount at Holy Spirit. Each child develops a strong sense of self and this is nurtured through wellbeing programs.

We are passionate about empowering and equipping each child with the skills and dispositions to be creative and active citizens in our ever changing world.

I look forward to welcoming you and your family to Holy Spirit Primary School.
