A Message From the Principal 

Welcome to the Mt St John’s Primary School website.

Whether you are a friend, a potential new friend or just browsing I hope that you get the information you are seeking. The school is small and friendly but also an innovative and dynamic place which fosters critical thinking, curiosity and joy in learning.

Established in 1922,  Mt St John’s is a strong and vibrant Catholic primary school for boys and girls from Years K-6. We provide an educational foundation for living life to the fullest, developing each child’s spiritual, intellectual, physical, moral and emotional life.

Websites are a great introduction but are rarely able to capture the true spirit of a place. It is my hope that you might visit us and tour the School so that you can see for yourself why it is that Mt St John’s Primary School has become well known as a place of quality Catholic education.

I hope you enjoy browsing the pages of our website and that you gain an understanding of the happy and energising place that is Mt St John’s Primary School, Dorrigo.
