PROUDLY PART OF THE COMMUNITY OF Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese

Our story

Established in 1859 by Archbishop Polding, St Monica's Primary is one of the earliest Catholic learning communities to be founded in New South Wales. St Monica is patron of mothers and womanhood. Her love of God and family is a love that we strive to live out in our school's Vision and Mission.

Over the years St Monica’s has seen many changes, with new buildings and upgrades to ensure our students receive a contemporary Catholic learning experience. More...


Principal's Welcome
