Our vision and mission as a Catholic primary school in the Penrith community, is to provide a learning environment where all members feel welcomed, cared for and supported.
The St Nicholas of Myra school motto is "Truth Through Learning" - in this way, we hope to communicate the message of God's love for all people.
As a school community, we value and celebrate:
- opportunities to share our faith
- caring for others in our community
- each child’s social, spiritual, emotional, academic and physical growth
- each individual according to their strengths and needs
- the continued development of our school curriculum
