About Us
St Augustine's School is a Catholic faith community with Christ as its foundation and inspiration. Located in Maryborough within the Goldfields Shire, our school offers a quality education to children from Prep-Year 6. We have a rich history in the Central Goldfields area, with much of this being attributed to the Brigidine nuns who administered the school for many years. Today, our school is administered by laity, with the central mission being to teach the children the Gospel values of Jesus Christ. The staff, in partnership with the parent and parish community, ensures that each child is accepted and valued. We believe that learning is most effective in a caring environment, where individual needs are addressed, children have the support to reach their full potential, confident in themselves and willing to make a worthwhile contribution to the world in which they live
