Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Primary School in Esperance is a co-educational primary school built in 1993 for students from Pre Kindergarten to Year 7. The school was established to be a distinctively Christian learning community with a clear vision to provide a stimulating environment where each of our students has the opportunity to grow in their faith and to be confident life-long learners, excited about their world and aware of their responsibilities to it and each other. Our vision is enlivened by our core values of courage, optimism, respect and excellence. The school provides varied programs, policies and facilities that help our students enjoy their learning and develop their talents. The professional development of staff has been dedicated to Gifted and Talented Education K-7, Play Based Policy development, Performing Arts and the integration of ICT in the classroom. The people and relationships at the school are the strength of our school community. The committed staff and supportive parents enjoy working together. We encourage the students to be creative and confident through a tradition of academic rigour whilst nurturing a strong sense of social responsibility. The lives of the people within our community and their enthusiasm embody our vision and God's love.
