Learning at St Margaret Mary's
St Margaret Mary's is a place where curiosity, imagination and love of learning thrive through working together to provide the most effective, engaging and challenging learning experiences for students.
As one of the 80 Catholic schools in the Diocese of Parramatta, we’re working together to transform learning for students in Greater Western Sydney. This means reimagining and refreshing learning and teaching for today’s world and today’s learners.
The purpose and promise of a Catholic education is to inspire each learner - student, teacher and family - to discover a meaningful and flourishing life.
Our faith journey
St Margaret Mary's is a great place for students to grow in faith and learning. We value each student as an individual and share the values of the Gospel to help them discover the hope that is within and to experience a meaningful and flourishing life.
We pay witness to the living partnership between school and parish. Our priests actively participate in our school and and we share in the rich liturgical life of our church.Our faith journey
Beyond the classroom
We believe it is important for students to pursue interests to find what they are passionate about. Our school gives them exposure to a range of exciting opportunities to unlock their creative potential, develop a talent or follow a passion.
From wilderness incursions to debating competitions, our students participate in a breadth of enrichment activities.Sport
Sport is a valued part of a school’s curriculum, contributing to the development of the whole child by providing a vehicle for social, physical, emotional and moral learning. Participation, enjoyment and skill development are the cornerstones of school sport. Representative pathways are also available through the Parramatta Diocesan Primary Schools Sports Council.
At St Margaret Mary’s, students have many opportunities to develop gross motor skills and live an healthy lifestyle. Students K-6 can participate in team sports, sports carnivals, and active games and activities. During Term 3, students in Years 1-6 attend an intensive 10-day learn-to-swim program as part of the PDHPE curriculum.
