Dear Parents,

Last term St Mary’s participated in the 5 year cycle of Registration and School Improvement. A panel of six Catholic Education Canberra & Goulburn staff members analysed the school’s policies and procedures. Five of the members also came to St Mary’s and engaged with our staff, students and selected parents to give commendations and recommendations in the areas of Catholic Identity and Culture, Staff Capacity and Leadership, Excellence in Teaching and Learning, Partnerships and Community and Stewardship and Resources.

The process was an extremely positive experience and a summary report can be found here. Recommendations from this report will form the basis of St Mary’s 3 year Strategic Plan which will be created next term. Once the strategic plan is developed 3 Annual Improvement Plans will be developed each year to achieve the goals of the Strategic Plan.

Regards

Phil Nielsen
