Principal’s Message

Welcome to St Christopher’s Catholic Primary School Holsworthy’s website and thank you for deciding to find out more about this wonderful school. Our mission is to nurture, inspire and empower each child’s potential.

We pride ourselves on our warm, welcoming and inclusive community. All of the staff genuinely care for each child and are committed to supporting their wellbeing. We passionately believe in educating the whole child – mind, body and spirit.
