ABOUT US

Why Our Lady's?

"Our Lady’s Surrey Hills is a hidden gem. Our 2 children have both enjoyed their time at Our Lady’s and have been taught by a range of committed and very skilled teachers. The community at Our Lady’s is what makes it different from most other schools; it’s personalised and they really value the children’s wellbeing."


 

Our school is passionate about excellence across and beyond the curriculum. We outperform much larger schools in a wide range of literacy and numeracy based academic competitions including the National Spelling Bee, Rotary Speech Competition, the Australian Maths Competition and Maths Olympiad with students achieving scores in the top 1% of students nationally. Our graduates are recognised as exceptional and selected as valedictorians and leaders in large private high schools across Melbourne - Whitefriars, St Kevins, Siena, Marcellin and many other schools. 

 

Beyond Literacy and Numeracy, we excel in science and technology having won awards in national and local coding and technology challenges, sustainability projects and science based competitions. Our students excel in sport where we regularly out compete much larger schools in Athletics, Cross Country, Swimming, Basketball as well as many other sports. We have a large choir of confident singers, an impressive skipping club and a strong performing arts program with breath taking whole school musicals every two years. 

 

We are particularly proud of our Catholic identity, passionate about social justice and focussed on pastoral care. We treat every child as an individual, challenging them at their point of need and supporting them where possible in all subjects. Our community is welcoming, diverse and actively involved in our many and varied school-based events including a school disco, fetes, art shows, musicals, barbeques, socials, masses and so many other events.

 

Every child is important in our school. We work together as a school communityto help each reach their potential and become their best selves in every aspect of their development - academic, social, emotional and spiritual.

Heritage

Our Lady’s Primary School is a small school where big things happen! Our Lady’s Primary was first opened in 1957 by Bishop Fox. With the exception of the brickwork, all other work was completed by the parishioners. We are proud that we are a nurturing and positive school, with an emphasis on creating a welcoming and safe environment, where children are not only cared for, but also encouraged to achieve academic excellence. We want all our students to confident, resilient and discerning well rounded people.

WHERE EVERYONE BELONGS
