Dear Parents, Carers and Visitors to our school, A very warm welcome to SS John and Monica Catholic Primary School. My name is Melanie Elliott, and I am privileged to be the Head Teacher of this thriving, vibrant and inclusive school.
As a parent of two children, I recognise the importance of selecting a school with high expectations and nurturing the whole child , encouraging them to grow spiritually, academically, and socially. At SS John and Monicas, we all strive to live out our mission statement, to learn through the example of Jesus, and love, respect, understand and value each other .
Our core purpose is to ensure that all children in our school have the opportunity and support to achieve their full potential. We recognise that it takes a community to raise a child and are proud of our strong partnership with our parents/carers.
Together, we can guide our children throughout their educational journey, helping them be successful life-long learners and positive role models who can contribute to society in the future. We welcome you to our unique, inclusive, caring and friendly school.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
