St. Paul's staff is committed to providing your children
with the best education possible and to improving student
achievement. Each one of us is part of a "Professional
Learning Community", (PLC), sometimes meeting as
a whole group, other times as divisions, to share best
practices and to learn the latest teaching strategies.
Some of our meetings take place at lunch, others before
or after school and some of P.D. days. We are all lifelong
learners and are all here for the benefit of our children!
St. Paul is currently undergoing an extensive upgrade
for both indoors and outside in the school yard. When
completed our students will benefit from brand new facilities

• several perennial gardens
The staff at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic School
will serve in accordance with Gospel Teaching to:

intellectually, spiritually, morally and physically
as they journey towards Christian adulthood

where children can feel secure, confident and happy
• involve teachers, parents, support staff and
community partners in the growth of the school
