Principal Letter

It is with great enthusiasm that we welcome you to St Margaret’s Primary School. We are a Catholic co-educational primary school in East Geelong, Victoria with approximately 230 children from Prep to Year 6. Our caring and dedicated staff are committed to sharing their passion for learning, helping our students to reach their full academic potential, develop their Catholic identity and acquire social responsibility. Our goal is to support all children in a nurturing environment that promotes academic excellence and a commitment to service.

Our Catholic identity is enhanced by strengthening the integration of faith, life and culture, inviting students to discover God’s presence in their daily lives and engaging in Catholic teaching. The size and structure of our school allows for each child to be supported to grow academically, physically, socially and spiritually in a happy, secure environment.

Classes operate under a multi-age structure (Foundation, 1/2, 3 /4, 5 /6) with students being taught a comprehensive curriculum as well as Religious Education in the Catholic Faith as set by the Archdiocese of Melbourne.

At St Margaret’s we strive to provide a learning environment that is safe, flexible, inclusive and fosters collaboration and creativity. Our wellbeing focus promotes a climate of mutual respect and responsibility where students develop a sense of belonging to our school community. We firmly believe that the care, safety and wellbeing of our students is a fundamental responsibility of all within our school community.
