About our school

Our Lady of Lourdes is a Primary School where your child is known.

We strive to develop every student in their academic, faith and social knowledge so that they can fully participate in the next phase in their education.

We believe that students learn when they are engaged and self-motivated. We engage each student at their next point in learning to constantly engage and develop student ideas. This approach of ‘scaffolding’ learning supports students to learn and achieve their personal best.
