Welcome to St Lawrence of Brindisi

our fabulous new Catholic Primary School in Weir Views.

I am truly blessed. Every day, I have the privilege of working with happy, funny, inspiring children, a dedicated, nurturing and highly skilled staff and supportive, engaged parents and guardians. St Lawrence of Brindisi Catholic Primary School is committed to creating a dynamic learning environment for every child in our school.

Our school has been founded on embedding a culture guided by our Catholic faith. Our values of respect, compassion and justice are visible in everything we do. We have built our school on strong partnerships, within our staff team, with parents and guardians, and, most importantly, with our students.

We strive to create a learning culture that fosters a love of learning and empowers every child to be successful. Every child is a gift from God, each blessed with their own identity and a blend of interests, talents and life experiences that make them unique. The learning in our school encourages our children to wonder, explore, and be creative. We celebrate the role of parents and guardians in their children’s educational journey because we understand that a strong partnership between the home and school provides the ingredients that enable learning to flourish.

We are passionate about ensuring our school is an environment where children feel safe, valued and heard. This is visible in the relationships our staff build with our students; the way in which they speak to them and nurture and support them while they are at school.

We understand that children learn best when they are actively engaged in their learning and when they see themselves as successful learners. Our learning culture is founded on our belief that every child can learn and succeed. This is what we seek for every child – that they have a positive experience during their time at St Lawrence of Brindisi. When we achieve this, we provide our students the opportunity to live enriched, fulfilled lives, shaped by faith, where they can make a positive contribution to our world.
