St Thomas More Primary School

Welcome to St Thomas More Primary School, located in Hadfield, Australia. As an establishment and point of interest, we are proud to be a primary school that is dedicated to providing a high-quality education and creating a vibrant learning community for our students, staff, parents, and community members.

At St Thomas More, we believe in the importance of personalized learning and challenge-based education. Our approach is based on ongoing data collection and analysis, allowing us to tailor our teaching to meet the individual needs of each student. Through this approach, we aim to engage our students and help them achieve their full potential.

Our dedicated and passionate teachers play a crucial role in creating a stimulating learning environment. They work collaboratively in teams, guided by a leader, to provide rich, real, and relevant learning experiences for our students. We encourage our students to set goals and challenges for themselves, helping them develop self-confidence and a love for learning.

As part of our commitment to excellence in education, we offer a wide range of experiences across the curriculum. These experiences are designed to help each student discover their own unique talents and abilities. We use comprehensive, ongoing testing and planning to ensure that our teaching is data-driven and focused on constructivist approaches to teaching and learning.

We also believe in the importance of developing our students' faith and knowledge of Catholic traditions. Through religious education, our students reflect on scripture teachings and are encouraged to put the words of Jesus into action through social justice. Our school community strives to live by the values of love and respect for one another.

The safety and wellbeing of our students is a top priority at St Thomas More. We have rigorous risk-management and employment practices in place to ensure the safety of all members of our community. We empower our families, children, young people, and staff to have a voice and raise concerns when needed.

As a contemporary, Christ-centered, child-centered learning community, we are committed to promoting the principles and practice of Australian democracy. We uphold the values of elected government, the rule of law, equal rights, freedom of religion, freedom of speech and association, and openness and tolerance.
