Welcome to Our Lady's. All who seek us out are most welcome in our place.
Our Lady's Primary School serves the parish of Our Lady's Wangaratta in educating students in the ways of Christ, the world, and our local community.
History
History
The rapid growth of Wangaratta after World War Two prompted the late Monsignor Mahoney to select some acres off White Street for the purpose of expanding facilities for Wangaratta’s Catholic Community. Fr James Byrne was appointed to the new parish of Our Lady’s in March 1958. One of his first priorities was to establish a school for the rapidly increasing population of the South Wangaratta area. He had approached the Brigidine Community who signified their willingness to provide teaching staff, so plans were drawn and building commenced.
Our Vision
Our Vision
We firmly believe that Our Lady’s is a school in which:
The values of the Gospel of Jesus Christ touch the personal life of the child, where he/she is able to experience people who manifest qualities of love, forgiveness, patience, compassion, tolerance and justice.
A strong community is fostered where respect for ourselves, others, environment, heritage and Church is created and nurtured
