Catholic Life

Together with Jesus, we grow in love.

 

Our Mission Statement

Holy Family Catholic Primary School exists to: 

  •  Assist in the Church’s’ mission of making Christ known to all people. 
  •  Assist parents, who are the primary educators of their children, in the education and religious formation of their children. 
  •  Be at the service of the local Church – the diocese, the parish and the Christian home. 
  •  Be a service to society. 

Our Mission statement was created by and is owned by the whole school community, reflecting our commitment to the Home, School, Parish partnership. It is the starting point for each policy, decision, meeting and action of our school community.
