Our School

St John’s Catholic School is a Kindergarten to Year Six school educating students in the Catholic tradition since 1843. Nestled next to the bridge in the picturesque town of Richmond; our school fosters each child’s spiritual, cognitive, emotional and physical growth in an atmosphere of learning, community and faith. St John’s Catholic School is a school where each student is embraced for who they are and who they can be. Faith and community are part of daily life and our students are challenged to be thinkers, to transform into their best selves and also to reach out to others. St John’s Catholic School is a school full of energy and warmth; a place where lives are transformed and families come together in a true sense of community. St John’s is distinguished by its commitment to Gospel values of integrity, social justice, compassion, community and particularly as reflected in our motto – love. Passionate about learning, our community finds strength in its diversity, unity in its shared values and meaning in its commitment to the Catholic faith.
