Vision Statement

To live the joy of the Gospel and share it in the world

St Michael’s Primary School, Nelson Bay is centred on the person and message of Jesus Christ.

St Michael’s Primary School is steeped in the Mercy traditions, is a community of faith-filled learners working together under the motto of ‘Truth and Trust’. Our Catholic identity is enriched by the teachings of Jesus to create a respectful, inclusive, safe and caring environment. All are encouraged to be active disciples following the example of Jesus; to become informed citizens, leaders and successful lifelong learners.

For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ (Corinthians 12:12)
