11-18 Years

Description

The St John Henry Newman Catholic School is a State Secondary School for kids aged 11 to 18 (Gender - Mixed)

The Saint John Henry Newman Catholic School is a very distinctive community which unequivocally works to be a living Christian community in which each child and young adult is known and loved for who they are. They want the pupils and students to enjoy their education – to be happy, safe and secure and to grow in God’s love so that when they leave the school, they are equipped to change the world and make it a better place. They firmly believe that our parents are the ‘prime’ educators and that the success is a result of the collaboration between parents, school and child working together for the good of the child. The parents are encouraged to be fully engaged in their children’s education and there are many opportunities for parents to visit the school and contribute to their children’s adult formation and academic success.
