Whitford Catholic Primary School is a double stream, co-educational learning community located in Perth's north coastal corridor. It caters for approximately 510 students from Pre- Kindergarten to Year 6. The vision for Whitford Catholic Primary School is ‘To be a Catholic community where children thrive, enjoy learning and gain life skills to meet future challenges’. The school is located on the same grounds as Our Lady of the Mission Church and Parish Centre. The school aims to provide a diverse and balanced curriculum that will allow students to develop their natural abilities and to strive towards the highest standards of achievement. Religious Education is an integral part of the teaching program. Students in all years take part in Religious Education classes, Masses and liturgies and through this develop their understanding and appreciation of the Catholic faith. Sacramental preparation occurs in Year 3 for Reconciliation, Year 4 for Holy Communion, and Year 6 for Confirmation. A range of Teaching Specialists are involved in a number of programs that are included within the organisational structure of the school. These include: Physical Education/Sport; Gifted and Talented program; Reading Recovery and student support; Italian; Computer and ICT studies (including strong IT support facilities), Library and Music. Specific education programs are also conducted throughout the school including: Friendly Schools and Families; Programme Achieve; Protective Behaviours; Recreational Pursuits; Seasons For Growth and Rainbows. All classrooms are air conditioned and the school has the necessary resources to ensure that all students receive a quality Catholic education delivered by experienced and committed teachers and staff.
