St. Columba's Catholic Primary School 30 York Street, South Perth, Western Australia 6151

Welcome to St. Columba's Catholic Primary School, a warm and inclusive institution located in the heart of South Perth on York Street. As an establishment of interest and a primary school, we are dedicated to providing a values-focused Catholic co-education to girls and boys from three-year-old Pre-Kindy through to Year 6.

At St. Columba's, our committed and caring teachers strive to create a nurturing environment where each child's unique skills and abilities are celebrated. We believe in fostering a love of learning, while also building resilience and perseverance to support our students on their life journey.

Our school community is welcoming and supportive, with a strong emphasis on respect, kindness, and compassion. We understand the importance of healthy relationships and wellbeing in a child's educational experience, and our teachers work diligently to create a positive and inclusive atmosphere.

Situated on the South Perth foreshore, our school boasts outstanding facilities and well-resourced learning environments that enrich children's experiences. From our beautifully restored Kindergarten facility to our large playing fields overlooking the city, we provide a range of dedicated spaces for Visual Arts, STEM, Music, and more.

At St. Columba's, we offer a variety of specialist programs, including STEM, Robotics, Visual Arts, Music, Physical Education, Korean, and Library. We also provide learning support programs in Literacy and Mathematics for children who need extra help, as well as enrichment activities for those ready for more challenge.

As a Catholic school, we bring the Catholic faith to life by showing children ways to live every day. Students have the opportunity to undertake sacraments such as Reconciliation, Holy Communion, and Confirmation through our partnership with St. Columba Parish. We welcome both Catholic and non-Catholic families who share our values.

The spirit of our school is rooted in the dedicated work of the Sisters of Mercy and the Sisters of St Joseph of the Sacred Heart, who have created a wonderful legacy for future generations. We are proud to continue their mission of providing a holistic education that develops the whole child - mind, heart, soul, and imagination.

If you are interested in joining our vibrant school community, we are currently enrolling and would love to hear from you. Whether you're considering Pre-Kindy or Kindy for 2024 and 2025, or are looking for places in other year groups, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We also invite you to watch our video or book a visit to experience our school firsthand.

At St. Columba's Catholic Primary School, we believe in nurturing lifelong learners and critical thinkers who ask questions, discern, and problem solve. We are dedicated to the wellbeing, development, and education of each child, helping them develop a strong sense of self and a connection to the broader community.

Join us at St. Columba's, where committed and caring teachers, a welcoming and supportive community, and outstanding location and facilities create the perfect environment for your child to learn, grow, and thrive.
