Learning at St Patrick’s Parramatta
St Patrick’s Parramatta is a place where curiosity, imagination and love of learning thrive through working together to provide the most effective, engaging and challenging learning experiences for students.
As one of the 80 Catholic schools in the Diocese of Parramatta, we’re working together to transform learning for students in Greater Western Sydney. This means reimagining and refreshing learning and teaching for today’s world and today’s learners.
The purpose and promise of a Catholic education is to inspire each learner - student, teacher and family - to discover a meaningful and flourishing life.
Our faith journey
St Patrick’s Parramatta is a great place for students to grow in faith and learning. We value each student as an individual and share the values of the Gospel to help them discover the hope that is within and to experience a meaningful and flourishing life.

Beyond the classroom
We believe it is important for students to pursue interests to find what they are passionate about. Our school gives them exposure to a range of exciting opportunities to unlock their creative potential, develop a talent or follow a passion.
Be it public speaking to kicking soccer goals, St Patrick's Parramatta is a place where every student shines!Sport
Sport is a valued part of a school’s curriculum, contributing to the development of the whole child by providing a vehicle for social, physical, emotional and moral learning. Participation, enjoyment and skill development are the cornerstones of school sport.
Extensive opportunities to participate in sports include:
- swimming carnivals
- cross country and athletics carnivals
- diocesan and local sports gala days
We are proud of our students’ success in representative sports including soccer, swimming and athletics. Representative pathways are also available through the Parramatta Diocesan Primary Schools Sports Council.
