Enrol in Excellence

St Agnes’ Education Pathway will provide your child with a unique educational and faith experience that seeks to form them into young people of faith, hope, purpose and joy. We are proud to deliver Catholic education to over 4000 students in Port Macquarie across three primary schools and three secondary colleges.

A firm grounding in the Catholic faith is the basis for our unmatched education pathway, providing a well-rounded combination of spiritual, academic, cultural, sporting and pastoral programs.

We are acutely aware that the great challenge of being human is to become the best person each of us can be, and the years of schooling are crucial for the growth of each child towards that goal. This approach develops students into resilient, socially conscious individuals wanting to make a difference in the community.

Our education pathway is uniquely supported by the following:

• St Joseph’s Family Services – Early Education
• John Henry Institute – Adult Education and Training
• St Agnes’ Uniform Store
• Understanding Faith – multimedia religious education resource

Effective family, school and community partnerships contribute to improved outcomes, wellbeing and life chances of young people. Our families are connected to our community and each other. This spreads well beyond the classroom learning environment to social functions, sporting and cultural events, membership of the Parents and Friends and other representative bodies, along with in school activities of volunteering and fundraising. 

When a family becomes part of a Catholic School community, they become partners with the school in the educational journey of their child. The purpose of this partnership is to support the faith formation, learning and pastoral care of the student who is at the centre of all our endeavours.

The new partnership that we form together will be integral to a successful school experience for each student and their families. Our families engage with our caring and nurturing community that focuses on building strong relationships built on mutual respect and accountability.
