St Thomas More's is a small primary school of just under 200 students situated in Belgrave,at the foothills of the Dandenongs. The school vision 'Our faith in Jesus Christ nurtures and empowers us to become a just and learning community' is realised through the Parish Priest, Principal, staff, parents and students working together to develop an environment which is conducive to producing excellence in educational outcomes. Our students are encouraged to be active learners through a broad integrated curriculum based on the VELS with a strong emphasis on literacy and numeracy. In developing the whole child, our school also offers a strong physical education and inter-school sports program, the use of IT as a tool to access knowledge and skills to enable students to become independent learners, a strong music program where live performance is encouraged, a Buddy System where junior and senior children show support and social interaction and an atmosphere where parents are encouraged to take an active role in their child's learning.
