It is a joy to welcome you to our digital home.
At Christ the Priest, we are more than just a school; we are a community of service. Our daily life is a reflection of the teachings of Jesus Christ, and we take great pride in being a dynamic, faith-filled family with deep connections to our parish, St. Catherine of Siena.
Our vision “Inspiring learners to grow, learn, and succeed” is the heartbeat of everything we do. We are deeply committed to nurturing the whole child, ensuring that every student who walks through our doors reaches their full potential spiritually, academically, socially, and emotionally.
We strive for educational excellence by utilising current, evidence-informed practices. Our Vision for Instruction supports a high standard of teaching, ensuring that our students receive the very best contemporary education.
We also know that children learn best when they feel secure and supported. To foster a supportive environment, we follow a Positive Behaviour Learning (PBL) approach. This is anchored by our STAR expectations, which are explicitly taught to every student:
- Safe
- Team Worker
- Achiever
- Respectful
It is wonderful to see how Christ the Priest Catholic Primary School continues to flourish with 510 students enrolled in 2026 from Prep to Year 6. As a three-stream school with straight classes, we offer a consistent and focused learning journey.
Our facilities are designed to spark curiosity and wonder, featuring:
- 21 modern classrooms and a dedicated Visual Arts studio.
- A spacious Discovery Centre and a multipurpose hall for community gatherings.
- Beautifully established play spaces, a calming Sensory Space, and four specialist classrooms.
- On-site Before and After School Care (7:00 am – 6:30 pm) to support our busy working families.
Learning here goes far beyond the core curriculum. Our students explore their passions through Physical Education, Performing Arts, Music, STEM, and Visual Arts. We are also incredibly proud to have implemented Auslan across the entire school, a beautiful language that teaches our students the true value of inclusivity.
We believe that a child’s education is a journey we take together. We deeply value the partnership we share with our families; here, every student, staff, and parent is an essential part of our story.
It is our greatest hope that when our students eventually move on to secondary school, they leave us equipped with lifelong skills, a deep love of Christ, and a heart full of gratitude. We want them to step into the world with the drive to be achievers in every aspect of their lives.
I hope our website gives you a true sense of the energy and spirit that makes our school so special. If you have any questions or would simply like to learn more, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We would love to hear from you.
Warm Regards,
Michelle Cassar
