Welcome to St Columba Anglican School. We offer a broad, challenging, academic curriculum, that is integrated with pastoral care initiatives, and sporting and cultural pursuits. Within the context of a family, Christian environment, we promote a fun atmosphere where students are engaged, motivated and self-directed in their learning.
Blessed with modern, state-of-the-art facilities and beautiful grounds, our Primary School offers a caring, secure and supportive learning environment for Kindergarten to Year 6 students. Successful learners of the future will be creative, confident and disciplined. Academic results are a component of this profile but they are not the only ingredients. This is why we want our students to have an education that provides the social skills and physical health and well being, that gives them the emotional strength to deal with life’s challenges.
We employ highly qualified and passionate teachers who promote a love of learning, pride in individual and collective achievement, and a sense of belonging for students throughout their academic, social, emotional and spiritual development. We work to develop each student’s sense of self-efficacy and the character traits that enable this, such as hard work, self-control, grit and adaptive thinking.

We invite you and your family to visit our school to experience the welcoming, energetic and happy atmosphere for yourself.
Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to be both challenging and flexible, allowing students to explore their interests while maintaining a strong academic foundation. Through specialist teaching in arts, sports, and languages, we offer a well-rounded education that encourages students to discover and develop their unique talents.
In Primary School, learning is an enriching and transformative experience. By cultivating independent thinking and resilience, we prepare them to face life's varied challenges with confidence. As education evolves to meet the needs of the future, our dynamic program benefits from innovative teaching methods that equip students with essential skills like critical thinking and collaboration. By fostering active engagement, personal empowerment and adaptable forward-thinking learners, we help them build confidence and independence for whatever tomorrow may bring.
At SCAS, we believe in nurturing more than just academic skills. From day one, students are gently guided to discover their own sense of courage and kindness, offering chances to uncover new interests while growing into confident, disciplined individuals. In our supportive culture, students are given numerous opportunities to explore, lead, and learn, building character traits that will serve them throughout life.
We cultivate this strength of character by providing an environment where students naturally grow qualities like integrity and compassion through meaningful experiences both in and out of the classroom. Through active roles in school leadership and a range of extra-curricular activities, they discover the joy of learning and the importance of service to others. This holistic approach ensures students embrace challenges with curiosity and discipline, ready to serve both their community and their own potential.
Our Primary School places the highest priority on student wellbeing, understanding its critical role in effective learning. Primary School is an exciting period full of growth, challenges, and exploration and we understand the importance of parents knowing their child is not only excelling academically but also happy and secure.
Challenges are approached as growth opportunities, and our Wellbeing and Support team offers personalised assistance to students, balancing educational needs with emotional support. We work hand-in-hand with families, ensuring that children remain at ease and well-rounded. Regular communication fosters a collaborative atmosphere where parents are actively engaged in their child’s development journey.
We also focus on building mental fitness and digital awareness, teaching students the skills they need to navigate today's digital landscape. By embracing research-backed strategies, we help each student feel empowered, secure in their identity, and motivated to pursue lifelong learning.
