St Bernard Catholic School will serve the educational, cultural, social, spiritual, emotional and physical needs of the children enrolled in the school.
We will provide a loving and supportive environment that will allow the child to reach full potential as a child of God.
We believe that with the "whole person" approach, children can adopt for themselves values which flow from the teachings of Jesus Christ as taught by the Catholic Church.
This whole person approach encourges children to strive to achieve academic excellence.
We will prepare each student as an individual, graced by God, to live a faithful, creative, humane and compassionate life and to contribute to human society.
St Bernard Catholic School mission is to learn and grow as the body of Christ in all we say and do.
