Principal's Welcome
Welcome to St. John’s Primary School in Mitcham.
I have been the Principal at St John's for four years and have the privilege of working with a dedicated staff and a welcoming community. With a vision of leading the future of learning, I believe in working together with families, to educate the whole child emotionally, academically, socially and spiritually. I have overseen a building project to renovate and upgrade our gardens, playgrounds and learning spaces, supporting contemporary learning programs.
Our small class-sizes allow for personalised teaching and strong engagement in the learning, for all of our students. As a caring and connected community, we nurture student confidence and a strong sense of belonging. We foster a spirit of welcome for all of our parents, staff and students, creating a vibrant and supportive community, living the Gospel values of peace, hope, faith and love.
St John’s Mitcham is dedicated to providing a rich and diverse curriculum that encourages a love of learning. Our cutting edge facilities promote engagement and collaboration, supported by strong teaching practices and technologies, which motivate enquiring minds. We encourage our students to flourish, celebrating their many talents and to make a difference in the world.
I warmly invite you to discover more of how St John’s Mitcham makes education an enjoyable and richly rewarding experience for all students. I am always happy to conduct personalised tours to show you all that we have to offer. Come and join us at St John’s.
