At the heart of the St Catherine’s experience is the relationship between teacher and student.

As a school we achieved so much collectively and individually in 2022 as we stepped forward from the shadows of COVID lockdowns and remote learning in 2020 and 2021. In 2022 we applauded the individual and collective academic achievements of our Class of 2022, achieving remarkable VCE results that have, for the second year in a row, placed St Catherine’s as the number one girls school in Victoria and ranked a commendable number two in the State overall.

Our achievements as a School in 2022 are a direct result of the collective efforts of our entire School community and testament to our learning culture that values and nurtures deep learning. Three years ago, St Catherine’s commenced a partnership of professional learning for our teachers with the University of Queensland, to embed a Thinking Agenda for every girl, in every classroom. Through the implementation of our School’s Strategic Plan, Towards 2025, we have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to cultivating the ‘thinking classroom’ at St Catherine’s, including our commitment to enhancing the student experience through the engagement of exemplary staff, committed to girls’ education and wellbeing.

The articles published within The Thinking Agenda showcase the expertise, as well as the extraordinary level of care our educators place in every student.
