St Clare’s Catholic Primary School continues to grow and now has more than 550 students enrolled
One of the school’s major developments is substantial landscape works to incorporate further sport fields and playgrounds.
St Clare’s continues to go from strength to strength.
As part of the parish of St Patrick’s in Pakenham, the school is on site with the early learning centre and St Francis Xavier College’s Officer campus.
This provides a seamless transition from early childhood to secondary education with state-of-the-art facilities.
Each learning space has been designed by education award-winning architects to provide a rich environment conducive to relevant, meaningful learning.
Areas are spacious and well-resourced so as to meet the diverse needs of all learners.
Before children come to school their parents have taught them so much.
They’ve learned to listen, to ask questions, to be filled with wonder, to say thank-you, to wash their hands, to pick up after themselves and to look out for each other.
St Clare’s continues these life lessons and nurtures the holistic development of each child.
For the St Clare’s family, numeracy and literacy skills are core elements of education; but so is religious education – developing empathy, social justice and a strong moral compass.
We encourage active play and healthy bodies; understanding other cultures through learning languages; and the confidence that comes with developing creativity through the performing and visual arts.
Due to Covid-19’s impact on schooling in 2020 and 2021, St Clare’s discovered digital technology was an integral part of the learning experience in this connected world and at St Clare’s, a student’s capacity for safety, courtesy, critical literacy and independent learning online using the most current mobile learning technologies is emphasised.
Student achievement is measured not only by academic growth but by each child’s emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing.
Being part of a faith-filled community instils St Clare’s students with a sense of identity, a feeling of belonging and above all, a powerful sense of self-worth.
The aim at St Clare’s is to have each child reach their potential; to be a well-rounded individual – within a supportive and caring learning environment.
