Primary College

St Mary’s College primary school provides an outstanding opportunity for boys in Years 5 and 6 to immerse themselves in College life.

This is achieved through learning experiences that aim to foster the growth of each student to his full potential through the provision of a wide variety of opportunities that are exciting, engaging, meaningful and fun.

Our primary school is unique in its affiliation with the secondary on the same campus. This enables the primary students to enjoy many advantages that range from the instruction by specialist teachers in key learning areas of Japanese, Music, Digital Technology, Design Technology (Food Technology, Wood Technology), STEM, Visual Art and Drama, as well as the use of modern facilities such as sporting facilities, science laboratories and the College library.

Importantly, the primary boys enjoy the mentoring and role modellng of senior students who take a proactive role in student leadership. A vertical pastoral system means the boys have contact with and support from students and teachers at all levels of the College. House groups meet weekly and mentor groups meet three times per week. This affiliation also affords a smooth transition into the secondary school in Year 7.
