St Clare’s Catholic Primary School continued to grow this year and now has an enrolment of about 600 students.
As part of the parish of St Patrick’s in Pakenham, the school is on site with the early learning centre and the Officer campus of St Francis Xavier College.
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.
The school’s final stage of landscape and garden works recently completed includes a new playground and sports field.
Before your children even come to school, you, as 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.
The job of the team St Clare’s is to continue these life lessons and nurture 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.
The school encourages 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.
Through the pandemic period, St Clare’s discovered digital technology is an integral part of the learning experience in our connected world, and the school emphasises a student’s capacity for safety, courtesy, critical literacy, and independent learning online using the most current mobile learning technologies.
Student achievement is measured not only by academic growth but by each child’s emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing.
Being part of faith-filled community instills students with a sense of identity, a feeling of belonging, and above all, a powerful sense of self-worth.
At St Clare’s, the aim is to have each child reach their potential; to be a well-rounded individual – within a supportive and caring learning environment.
