St. Mary's Primary School 34 Templeton Street, Castlemaine, Victoria 3450

Welcome to St. Mary's Primary School, located in the charming township of Castlemaine in Victoria, Australia. Our school is a vibrant community of learners, dedicated to providing a nurturing and enriching environment for our students to thrive.

At St. Mary's, we believe in offering our students a diverse range of learning opportunities. Our curriculum is designed to inspire and engage students, fostering a love for learning that will stay with them throughout their lives. We are committed to providing a holistic education that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit of each child.

One of the highlights of our school year was the visit from renowned Australian songwriter and singer, Andrew Chinn. Andrew shared his inspiring songs, such as "These Hands," "Rainbow," "An African Blessing," and "Rise Up!" with our students. These songs are not only enjoyed in our classrooms but also used in liturgies across Australia, New Zealand, USA, and Canada.

We also believe in the importance of experiential learning. Recently, our 4/5/6 students had the opportunity to visit the Burke and Wills monument and the Castlemaine Art Museum. This excursion allowed them to learn about the role of democracy in Castlemaine and gain insight into the historic expedition of Burke and Wills.

At St. Mary's, we pride ourselves on our strong sense of community. We foster a supportive and inclusive environment where every student feels valued and respected. Our dedicated and passionate staff work closely with parents and caregivers to ensure that each child receives the individual attention they need to reach their full potential.

We invite you to become a part of our St. Mary's community. Come and see for yourself the wonderful learning environment we have created for our students. Whether you are a prospective student, parent, or member of the community, we look forward to welcoming you to St. Mary's Primary School in Castlemaine, Victoria.
