And perhaps the most important question of all is – Will this school fit my child’s needs? Will they feel like they belong? Will they thrive at this school? In South Australia, families have a wide range of schooling options, including a Catholic Education.
Catholic schools value the intrinsic worth of every individual child. Our schools provide students with many opportunities inside and outside of the classroom, to educate and nurture the whole person, helping them to be thriving, capable learners as well as extraordinary human beings. Teachers in Catholic Schools know what a privilege it is to be part of a child’s schooling journey, because an intangible piece of your school lives with you forever. What you learn at school, shapes who you become as an adult.
“We are an educational sector that is committed to providing excellence for every child whose learning and education is entrusted to our care. Our learning experiences are grounded in Catholic values and beliefs. We want every student to experience success according to their unique characteristics and talent.” says Dr Neil McGoran, Director, Catholic Education South Australia.
Catholic Schools Open Week is an opportunity for you to meet your local Catholic school and discover how we work in partnership with families across South Australia to educate today’s children.
Catholic Schools Open Week is from August 9 – 15, 2021 and during this week many Catholic schools will be hosting tours for you to meet the Principal and other staff members and experience the learning environments of our schools. Visit our directory to find your local Catholic school.
Catholic education, a choice worth making.
Three Catholic schools have been named as winners at this year’s South Australian Architecture Awards for their recent building projects.
McAuley Community School, Loreto College and Blackfriars Priory School were recognised by the Australian Institute of Architects, who award projects that have a considerable impact on the communities they serve and demonstrate generosity toward the broader public.
