Welcome to our website.....
Welcome to St Mary's Catholic Primary School Warwick, one of Warwick's finest primary schools. Under the umbrella of the Toowoomba Diocesan Catholic Education Office, we are a Parish School, part of the St Mary's Parish, Warwick. Our Parish Priest, Fr Franco Filipetto, supports the pastoral role of the school.
The school offers a professional and dedicated staff who endeavour to deliver a curriculum which is both exciting and innovative. We have a very real commitment to the basics of literacy and numeracy. We complement this by also addressing other key areas of learning to provide a wonderful all-round education for the children in our care.
St Mary's School is proud of its history of providing high quality education in an environment of the Catholic tradition. Our school is committed to meeting the challenges of education today and in the future in order to provide students with the skills necessary to progress further along the life-long journey of education and learning.
PRINCIPAL'S REPORT
Our school theme for this year has been “Share the story”. Each and every member of our community has been an active member of sharing their own story, sharing the story of others and sharing the story of Jesus. In 2019, we hope to take this further with “Believe in the story”. We will endeavor to not only give lip service to the stories of those who inspire us but in the words of Catherine McAuley, “We should be shining lamps, giving light to all around us.” Click here to view Margaret Grew's Principal's Report for 2018.

YEAR 6 GRADUATION MORNING TEA
Year 6 students are almost at the end of their primary education. We have had a successful year and it is now time to celebrate their achievements. On the morning of the last day of school, Friday, 7th December, we will have a morning tea in Assisi Place (parking behind the Church) with all family members who are able to, and who wish to come along - this includes grandparents and extended family members. Morning Tea will be held in Assisi Place and commence at 9.30 am and conclude at 10.10 am, so that the children can make their way to Mass by 10.30 am. We ask that each family bring along a plate of food to share. We will provide cake, tea, coffee and cordial. Please remember to take home your plate and any food that is left after the morning tea. We look forward to seeing you on Friday, 7th December.
CHRISTMAS EVE MASS
Christmas Eve Mass at 6pm is a family celebration and we invite you to join us. If your child would like to read, hand out the bulletins, participate in the Gospel play or carry the offertory please contact Mrs Young on 0418 611 872 or Patrice at the Parish Office on 46611033. We will have a practice on Thursday, 20th December at 3:30 in the Church. We encourage all children who attend to wear a costume of someone from the Christmas
story, eg Mary, Joseph, wise men, shepherd, sheep, angels.
