TESTIMONIALS

OUR HISTORY

Chisholm Catholic Primary was established in 1994 and is very much involved in building a community spirit with active parent involvement.

St Matthew's Parish, Windsor, has two Catholic primary schools. Chisholm Catholic Primary is one of the two schools serving the church's mission.

Our school initially had 117 pupils and seven staff. Situated at Bligh Park, the school began with two Kindergartens, Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3. The school enrolments increased each year and in 1996, the school opened on its new site with 280 pupils, nine full-time teaching staff, three clerical staff, a teacher librarian, a teacher’s aide and a part-time music teacher.

Over the years that followed Chisholm Catholic Primary further developed into a two to three stream school catering for over 500 pupils with a strong emphasis on music, creative and practical arts.

Technology has become an integral part of teaching and learning with all classrooms providing technology that enhances learning opportunities for all of our students.

Chisholm constantly works towards promoting lifelong learning, while improving the learning outcomes for all students.
