Our Catholic school is part of the Catholic Church. We work in partnership with our local parish and priests in order to enrich the spiritual life of the students, staff and families of our school, especially through the celebration of the Sacraments.

2023 St Mel's Catholic Primary School Campsie. SCHOOL LIFE - Catholic Identity: Shared Mission

Father Peter Joseph is an active and visible member of our school community.  He nurtures staff, parent and student faith and supports the development of their knowledge of the Catholic faith. 

Community masses involving Parish, families and school staff occur throughout the year. Following certain masses the parish community gather for hospitality sharing stories and getting to know each other.

Our Family Educator plays an integral role in the connection between school and parish and is always available to assist parents and answer questions regarding faith life and school matters. A free playgroup for preschoolers in the community is offered twice a week, on Thursday and Friday morning from 8:45-10am.
