Welcome.....St Anne's School was founded by the Sisters of Mercy and officially opened 23 May 1925. Our school provides students from Prep to Year Six with a contemporary and well-balanced Catholic education in a family atmosphere. The school family consists of a caring and willing group of parents and students, together with a dedicated and experienced staff.
St Anne’s Catholic Primary School is located in the coastal town of Sarina, in the Rockhampton Diocese. The student population of the school remains relatively stable. Parents believe that St Anne’s offers their children a quality educational curriculum in an environment of care and nurturing, support and respect. The school has a very strong sense of community ownership. Strong support exists between staff, students and parents with a very active and dedicated Parents and Friends Committee and School Board. |

From the Principal...
As we move further into the term, it has been wonderful to see our students settling into routines and engaging so positively in their learning. I want to take a moment to highlight a few important updates from across our school community.
Uniform and Hair Expectations
Thank you to the many families who continue to support our school’s uniform and hair policy. Wearing the correct uniform helps build a strong sense of pride and belonging, and it ensures consistency across our school. Over the coming weeks, staff will continue to remind students of these expectations. Your support at home via checking uniforms, hairstyles, and accessories each morning makes a significant difference and is greatly appreciated.
Visit from Bishop Michael
We were delighted to welcome Bishop Michael to our school last week. His visit created a wonderful sense of excitement, and our students engaged in thoughtful and enthusiastic conversations with him. Bishop Michael commented on the warmth of our community and the respectful way students interacted with him. It was a proud moment for our school and a reminder of the strong faith connections that guide our work.
Opening Mass and Beginning of Lent
Our Opening Mass was a beautiful way to gather as a community and ask for God’s blessing over the year ahead. Thank you to the students and staff who helped prepare and participate so reverently. As we now approach the beginning of Lent, we look forward to journeying together through this important season of reflection, prayer, and service. Information about our Ash Wednesday liturgy and Lenten activities has been shared with families.
St Anne’s Catholic Primary School Sarina proudly upholds the motto “Faith and Knowledge”, which reflects our school’s commitment to nurturing both the spiritual and academic growth of its students. This guiding phrase is deeply rooted in the Catholic tradition and is shared by many Catholic schools across Australia.
Thank you for your support throughout what promises to be an eventful and rewarding year ahead.
Kind regards,
Mathew Mills
