Meet the principal

St Thomas More’s, Toowoomba is a Catholic Primary School offering Prep – Year 6.  Our aim is to provide a stimulating and supportive environment in which our children gain an enthusiasm for learning in order to achieve their full potential. We are a vibrant and welcoming community founded on the values of the Gospel, while also living our motto, 'live life in all its fullness.’

We aim to create a family-oriented atmosphere 'where every student is at the heart of all that we do'. Parents are the first and foremost educators of their children and our aim is to work in partnership with parents to maximise every student's growth and potential.  In partnership with parents and the wider community, we promote high expectations while delivering an innovative and holistic education in a nurturing, safe and caring learning environment.

St Thomas More’s aims to deliver an innovative learning program, founded on the skills required for the 21st Century, which recognises the inherent qualities and uniqueness of all students and teachers.  Along with teachers, students are viewed as active contributors to their learning with the aim of creating a culture where difference of perspective is welcomed and learnt from. Developing capacity in our students and teachers is vital to their growth, characterised by highly effective relationships and a true love of learning. Ultimately, the holistic development of every student and teacher is essential as in partnership they maximise their potential.

We believe Technologies play a key role in developing successful learners who use language to enrich their futures, while we offer a range of sporting, cultural and leisure activities in an endeavour to develop a 'holistic' educational environment.

I very much look forward to you contacting us to find out more about our amazing school!
