“Whether our girls are rowing, running, playing netball, badminton, basketball, swimming, or skiing, our aim is to elevate the athletic prowess, strength, and the overall sports engagement
of every girl at St Catherine’s School.” 
MICHELLE CARROLL, PRINCIPAL 

This Spring Edition of St Catherine’s News celebrates the significant role co-curricular programs play in educating and nurturing the whole child at St Catherine’s School.

Throughout this Edition, we celebrate the remarkable creativity and dramatic skills of our performing arts students in our 2023 productions of Children of the Black Skirt and Seussical JR. Our Debating and Public Speaking Program is explored, along with the importance of student voice in our School’s leadership; finding yourself through camps and exchange programs; and acknowledging the outstanding performances of our Gala Concert musicians.

As a School we also proudly acknowledge the official opening of St Catherine’s School’s newly refurbished Sports Centre as part of the Dorothy Pizzey Centre redevelopment. The new Sports Centre has enhanced the learning environment for all students at St Catherine’s, from our ELC and Prep children in the new Ashley Siswanto Tumbling Studio to the Strength and Conditioning Studio for our Senior students and Athlete Development Academy candidates.
