The School of the Good Shepherd is a Catholic Parish Primary School which was developed to service the needs of the growing outer suburbs of Gladstone Park and Tullamarine. Since then, the school has continued to strive to meet the needs of the community it serves.
School of the Good Shepherd has a deep sense of purpose, trust and celebration. As a Catholic school, it stresses its communal aspect and seeks to be a welcoming, learning
and celebrating community, which achieves its aims through the partnership of children, teachers, parents and clergy. We stress the dignity of all children of God and the right to develop their gifts of mind, body, spirit and imagination so that they can
live life to the full. Our school aims to educate our children to understand their surroundings, to make judgements on the basis of values and beliefs, to act prudently and justly and to give them a sense of their potential ‘to change the world’.
Our school structure is multi‐age and is based on the principles of developmental learning. All children in Years Prep‐6 are provided with learning opportunities within the multi‐age structure. This philosophical base guides our practices and drives our approach to learning.
