Welcome to St Thomas More Catholic Primary School, Mt Eliza, located on Canadian Bay Road. Our school community is dedicated to providing a nurturing and welcoming environment where every child can thrive. As a Child Safe school, we prioritize the safety, wellbeing, and inclusion of all our students.

At St Thomas More, we take pride in our Catholic faith and tradition, which serves as the foundation for all aspects of school life. We foster a strong sense of community, and active engagement from all members is encouraged. Working together with parents, we aim to develop confident and enthusiastic learners who embody the values of the Gospel in their everyday lives. This partnership with families ensures that our students have a strong sense of belonging and connectedness, enabling them to flourish.

Our teachers understand the importance of positive relationships in effective teaching. They take the time to know each child individually, understanding their unique gifts, talents, personalities, and learning needs. With this knowledge, our teachers create differentiated learning programs to meet the individual needs of each student, helping them reach their full potential.

At St Thomas More, we provide stimulating and challenging learning environments that celebrate strengths and promote a growth mindset. Our dedicated teaching staff fosters a collaborative culture of learning, encouraging students to problem solve, think critically, and be creative. We maintain high standards in all curriculum areas while prioritizing the wellbeing of each student.

As the Principal, I am passionate about providing exceptional learning opportunities in a safe and supportive environment. Our dedicated and highly professional staff share this passion, and we look forward to partnering with you to support your child's educational journey.

But don't just take our word for it - hear from our students and families themselves:

"St Thomas More is a great school! My teachers make learning fun, and they are all really caring. I always want to come to school because I have lots of friends, and everyone is kind and respectful."

"Deciding to send our children to St Thomas More was a decision we won't regret. The school's support during the transition was excellent, and the 'new family buddy program' was invaluable. We are confident that our children will reach their full potential, academically and emotionally, thanks to the fantastic educators and like-minded parent community."

"We are grateful for the passionate teaching staff who genuinely care about our children's wellbeing. The school community is welcoming, and families look out for each other. Our children are thriving in this nurturing environment."
