Principal's Message
As the Principal of St Catherine’s Primary School, I would like to extend a warm welcome and invite you to learn more about our wonderful school community.
We believe that the education of a child is a partnership between school and home, whereby we work together to support your child to build self-esteem, develop independence, and a lifelong love of learning.
St Catherine’s School is an inclusive and diverse community, welcoming catholic & non-catholic families, and is truly a place where everyone feels like they belong. Trust and respect are key to building positive relationships within our school community. The staff of St Catherine’s and I look forward to developing our relationship with you, your child, and your family so that together we can all support your child to learn, grow and develop.
Our beautiful school grounds are located on Fletcher Street, Moorabbin next to Holmesglen TAFE and Hospital. We are very fortunate to have lovely modern facilities which along with our dedicated staff, provide an inviting environment for learning. Our students are valued, nurtured, and supported to be the best version of themselves.
