We warmly welcome you to the vibrant and inclusive community of St John the Baptist School. At St John the Baptist we pride ourselves on being a faith filled community where our School Vision and Mission are evident and active in all that we do. From the moment you enter, the sense of community and welcome can be seen, heard and experienced. The strong partnerships and relationships shared between families, school and parish creates a strong sense of service with and for each other and the wider community.
At St John the Baptist School we are committed to the full flourishing of each child. We recognise that each student is unique and we are privileged to have the opportunity to nurture and educate them as young people preparing for their future.
We believe in developing every child spiritually, academically, socially and emotionally and in preparing them to be faith filled citizens of the future. Our students are nurtured to be people of competence, conscience and compassion.
Our staff are committed to designing and delivering a contemporary curriculum to meet the needs of all students. We pride ourselves in providing a rich, engaging environment that promotes risk taking, innovation, critical thinking, collaboration, initiative and creativity.
We invite you to see our amazing school and community in action.
