St Mary’s Primary School

Welcome to St Mary's Primary School, located in Lancefield on Chauncey Street. As a Catholic school, St Mary's operates under the consent of the Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne and is governed by Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools Ltd (MACS). MACS oversees 292 Catholic schools in the Archdiocese, all with the goal of continuing the mission of Catholic education.

At St Mary's, we believe in proclaiming the Good News and equipping our young people with the knowledge, skills, and hope to live meaningful lives and enrich the world around them. We understand that educating the youth is a collective responsibility, and that's why we have established School Advisory Councils. These councils serve as a vital connection between the wider school community and school leaders, ensuring collaboration and consistency in school policies and procedures.

By implementing this governance model, we aim to ease the administrative burden on our schools and parishes, allowing parish priests to focus on the mission of education within the community. This also enables greater collaboration between schools, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose.

At St Mary's, we prioritize academic excellence, spiritual growth, and the holistic development of each student. Our dedicated team of educators is committed to creating a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child can thrive. We offer a comprehensive curriculum that combines rigorous academics with opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.

We invite you to explore our new webpage, specifically the "Why St Mary's" section, to learn more about our institution and the unique educational experience we offer. Whether you're a parent seeking an exceptional primary school for your child or a member of the community interested in supporting Catholic education, we welcome you to join the St Mary's family.
