St Brigid's Primary School 52 Irrawang Street, Raymond Terrace, New South Wales 2324

Welcome to St Brigid's Primary School, located in the heart of Raymond Terrace on Irrawang Street. As a Catholic school in the Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle, we are dedicated to providing quality education for students from Kindergarten to Year 6.

At St Brigid's, we believe in using contemporary evidence-based teaching and learning methods to ensure our students receive the best education possible. That's why every classroom is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including laptops, tablets, iPads, and SMART Boards. We understand the importance of preparing our students for the digital age and strive to create a technologically advanced learning environment.

Our school is committed to catering for the individual needs of each student. We recognize that every child is unique and has different learning, behavioral, social, and emotional needs. Through personalized attention and support, we aim to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where all students can thrive. In addition, we offer various opportunities for students to develop STEM skills, such as critical thinking, coding club, and problem-solving activities.

Promoting physical activity and healthy living is a core value at St Brigid's. We believe that physical well-being is essential for academic success and overall happiness. Our philosophy integrates physical activity throughout the school day, with quality and active physical education lessons and diverse sporting opportunities. We encourage our students to lead an active lifestyle and instill in them the importance of staying fit and healthy.

We understand that being part of a defense family comes with its own unique challenges. That's why St Brigid's has a dedicated Defense Schools Transition Aide (DSTA) who supports defense families within our school community. The DSTA's role includes welcoming, integrating, farewelling, and supporting families during times of parental absence. Our focus is to help students build resilience and provide them with the necessary support to navigate the added stress of being a defense family.

As our students progress beyond primary school, we encourage them to continue their Catholic education by attending Catherine McAuley Catholic College or San Clemente High School in Mayfield. These institutions provide a seamless transition for our students, ensuring they receive a well-rounded education that aligns with our values and teachings.

At St Brigid's Primary School, Raymond Terrace, we are dedicated to nurturing the academic, social, and emotional growth of our students. We strive to create a supportive and inclusive community where every child has the opportunity to thrive. Join us on this educational journey and give your child the foundation they need for a successful future.
