Principal’s Message

 

Our Lady of the Way School is situated on a significant historical site of the Murrumba Homestead, the original home of the Petrie family. Our school has been an integral part of the Petrie Catholic Parish for over 50 years. On 2 February, 1964, Monsignor J. English, representing Archbishop Duhig, laid the foundation stone of the building, and school commenced next day in temporary accommodation.
 
We are a quality, Catholic, Prep-Year 6 co-educational Primary School. 
 
Community - Our Lady of the Way Parish School is a community, rather than a collection of individuals.
Faith - Our Lady of the Way Parish School is a Catholic School not a private school.
Learning - Our Lady of the Way Parish School is a place where the unknown becomes known.
Diversity - Our Lady of the Way Parish School is inclusive of those who share our virtues.
 
  • If you are looking for a school that seeks to create a safe learning environment where students are taught to be independent, self-regulating and self-motivated in persistent pursuit of their personal best and able to get along with others; come and see us.
  • If you are looking for a school that helps to develop students of strong character and decency with the social and emotional competencies to live and learn well; come and see us.
  • If you are looking for a school that fosters empathetic students, considerate of themselves, each other and the world in which they live with sound and good reasons for the things they say and do; come and see us.
Enrolment enquiries are welcome at any time. Prep enrolments open in March of each year for the following school year.

community … faith … learning … diversity
We don’t come to school to be better than others.
We come to school to better ourselves by being able to work with others.
