Welcome to the School of the Good Shepherd Catholic Primary School, Gladstone Park.
Our school motto, ‘Known by your name’ truly reflects the heart of our school community, which is a place where each child is recognised, valued, nurtured and encouraged to flourish as a unique child of God.
Guided by our Catholic faith, we strive to live the Gospel values each day through our school values of compassion, belonging and growth. We believe that faith is not only something we learn about, but something we live through our relationships, our actions and our service to others. Together, we foster a welcoming and inclusive environment where every child and family feels connected, supported and respected.
At the School of the Good Shepherd, we are committed to providing an evidence-based education through explicit instruction as our approach to learning and teaching. Our structured and intentional approach ensures each child develops strong foundations in literacy, numeracy and critical thinking, empowering them to achieve their personal best and become confident lifelong learners.
Equally important is our commitment to the care and wellbeing of every child. We understand that children thrive when they feel safe, happy and supported. Through strong partnerships between school, family and parish, we create a caring environment where children are encouraged to grow academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually.
We warmly welcome you to our vibrant learning community and look forward to partnering with you on your child’s educational journey.
Mrs. Laura Petrie
Principal
