I am delighted to welcome you and your family to our community and look forward to building a strong and lasting partnership. At Mother of Good Counsel, we see parents as the first educators, and are committed to working together in a spirit of cooperation, collaboration and mutual respect to support your child’s growth and learning.
Rooted in Gospel values, inspired by the traditions of the Mercy Sisters and guided by 1 Corinthians 16:14 ‘Let everything you do be done in love’, our approach focuses on the holistic development of each child: academically, spiritually, socially, emotionally and physically. Through a rigorous curriculum and strong values education, we empower students to thrive and reach their potential.
Each child and parent wishing to enrol at Mother of Good Counsel are expected to uphold the values of the school. Each child participates in the Religious Education program and agrees to become an active contributor to this community of learners. Parent involvement is considered a key element in maintaining a positive approach to educational, social and behavioural expectations. We encourage you to participate in all aspects of school life by contributing your initiative, energy, time and expertise.
Our professional and dedicated staff are committed to continually improving their skills and knowledge and utilise their expertise to create learning programs which cater for the individual needs of students. Student engagement and learning is enhanced by the variety of extra-curricular activities on offer.
Thank you for choosing to journey with us. I look forward to getting to know you and your child as we work together to create a positive and meaningful school experience.

Principal, Mother of Good Counsel School
