We ensure every child feels a sense of belonging and connection.

We encourage students to grow in their faith journey through daily prayer and reflection, and active expressions of their faith.

We honour student questions as the focus of our learning and use an inquiry approach as our main method of teaching.

We enable all students to experience stretch and challenge and provide opportunities for them to focus on their strengths.

We provide opportunities for students to contribute to a team and encourage them to play, make and construct.

Our community crest

The cross represents the hope that comes from the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The open book of knowledge and truth reflects the 'Good News' of St Luke's Gospel.

The contrasting green and navy blue represents foundations of grass under our feet and the aspirations of reaching for the sky.

The teal can be seen as a person reading for knowledge, or as a source of Truth as reflected by Luke's Gospel.

Our history

St Luke’s commenced in 2016 as a K-6 school with 86 students enrolled. We are a Catholic learning community establishing the ‘new normal’ for preschool to post school learning within an extended school day, 6:30am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.

Today, we have grown to over 1600 students from K-12, with 40 students in our high needs studio, Arrunga, in addition to our early learning centre and before and after school care.

In a place where Learning = Infinite Possibilities, St Luke’s provides each student with inquiry experiences which are relevant to their real world. As our students grow, so too does our school, with impressive new facilities opening as we continue to anticipate the learning needs of our community.

By providing a flexible and diverse curriculum, learning experiences will progressively be self-directed and increasingly personalised. Within a safe and secure environment, literacy, numeracy and faith formation are viewed as strong foundations to assist young people identify and solve problems.

As students grow in their understanding of self through our targeted life design program, students work with life coaches to understand their strengths, interests and motivations in order to understand how they can have an impact on the world.
