A Warm Welcome Awaits You

Dear Parents, Guardians and Families

​

I am delighted to welcome you to Our Lady of Fatima, a small Catholic Primary School dedicated to providing a high quality and holistic education in a welcoming, inclusive and supportive environment.

​

Through our staff, location and physical resources, we believe that we offer a unique primary school program where students can excel academically and socially while establishing an important foundation for secondary school years and beyond.

​

With an extensive campus, Our Lady of Fatima offers modern, purpose built learning spaces with extensive playgrounds and sporting fields, located on a quiet street frontage that provides a sense of privacy and security for our students and families.

​

With a rigorous teaching program, our staff hold a common vision of academic success for all students, where teaching capabilities and relationships are nurtured to support students’ academic results, spiritual development and wellbeing.

​

With a focus on building the highest possible level of care and trust between students, teachers and parents, we place ‘learning’ at the centre of every day’s activities, while ensuring that a strong sense of community and friendship is maintained.

​

Through our school motto 'dream, believe, achieve' we establish in our students a strong sense of the importance of goal setting and hard work in order for students to achieve their dreams, whatever they may be.

​

Whether you choose Our Lady of Fatima for the standard of teaching; its dedicated staff; campus resources or location, I genuinely believe that we can offer your child an environment where they will thrive emotionally and academically.

​

I look forward to welcoming you into our school community and sharing your child's educational journey with you.

​

Sarah McDermott

Principal
