Principal's News

I am delighted to be joining the St Agatha's community after six years at
St Thomas the Apostle Primary School. Prior to that, I had the privilege of serving as Principal at St Laurence O'Toole Primary School.
My goal is to create the conditions in which every child feels safe, supported, and able to thrive in learning that is carefully planned and delivered by expert teachers. Over the coming months, I look forward to getting to know our students, staff, families, and parish community, and to identifying small but meaningful improvements that will help us achieve the best possible outcomes for our students.
I know that change can be challenging, even for principals. As I learn about the traditions, routines, and strengths of St Agatha's, I will approach this transition with patience and a willingness to listen. In return, I ask for your grace and understanding as I navigate what will undoubtedly be a significant learning curve.
I am excited about the journey ahead and look forward to working in partnership with you all.
Warm regards,
Kate Dourley
