- St Peter's Father Figures | St Peter's Primary
Trust Respect Unity Excellence #TRUE St Peter's Father Figures The St Peter’s Father Figures is about engaging the Father Figures in our school. There’s evidence to say that there is a strong influence on a child’s academic achievement, social success, health and well-being and attitude towards learning when fathers are involved. This can come about at a school level when there is consistent discussion and action with the child where both parents are working in collaboration with the school, and teachers, in regards to expectations, policies and procedures. We welcome all Father Figures in our school community to be part of any initiatives rolled out during the year, and we look forward to meeting you all. Should you have any questions, please feel free to email Matt Nettleton at: matt.nettleton@cewa.edu.au St Peter's Father Figures Run Club The initiative will be led by members of the Dads of St Peter’s Committee with the aim to promote health and well-being, and to engage the parents in our community, especially all father figures, to participate with their child in a variety of fun running activities. This includes relays, games and a circuit. We strongly encourage all parents to stay and participate in the activities as an opportunity to spend quality time with your child. Should you be unable to stay, students will be supervised by our dedicated staff who will be assisting on the day. Further Information: – The Run Club will be conducted at Grand Prom each Thursday morning from Week 5-10, starting at 7:45am. Students and parents can arrive and join in at any time. – Running Club is for everyone from Kindy – Year 6 – Students who participate in the Run Club are permitted to wear their Sports uniform for the duration of the day. – At the end of each session, students will continually run laps of a circuit, with each lap recorded. These laps will be tallied and will go towards a class total. The more students running, the more laps can be achieved! – Students will be walked back to school by the teachers for an 8:30am start. Should you have any questions, please feel free to email Matt Nettleton at: matt.nettleton@cewa.edu.au
- Religious Education | St Peter's
Trust Respect Unity Excellence #TRUE Religious Education Religious Education Religious Education at St Peter’s Primary school comprises two distinct but complementary dimensions – teaching religion as a curriculum area and developing the religious dimension of the school by nurturing the religious, spiritual and faith of our students. Religious Education is central to the curriculum and life of the school. It is taught in a context with the same systematic demands and rigour as all other learning areas and is sequenced to help children relate to the Catholic faith within their daily lives. The units of work are set by Catholic Education Western Australia and mandated by the Bishops of Western Australia. Religious Educations lessons are complemented by prayer, liturgical singing and class and whole school liturgies and prayer assemblies. Through Pastoral Care, we enhance the dignity of each person within our school community whilst maximising learning and growth. The pastoral care of St Peter’s Primary school children is of paramount importance and is a shared responsibility between the school and the home. Sacramental Programs The school assists parents in preparing their children for the Sacraments through Sacramental programmes which are family-focused, Parish-based and school-supported. Parent information sessions and parent/child workshops are held as part of the preparation for each sacrament. Children participate in Parish-based Sacramental programs in Year Three (Penance/ Reconciliation), Year Four (Eucharist) and Year Six (Confirmation). As the first faith educators of their children, our parents are an integral part of this preparation and are encouraged to be supportive and involved in the process.

- About Us | St Peter's
At St Peter's Primary School, Inglewood our core purpose as a Catholic school is to inspire our students to learn, achieve and to serve in truth. There is a striving to see beyond appearances to greater realities and true happiness. Welcome from the Principal My name is Daine Burnett, and it is my privilege to welcome you to our school. I was fortunate enough to be appointed as the Principal at St Peter's Primary School for 2026. Previous to this position, I have been involved in leadership roles within Catholic Education Western Australia for over twenty-five years. St Peter's Primary School caters for students from Pre Kindy through to Year Six, in a unique environment, which offers opportunities for each child to develop emotionally, spiritually, socially, physically and cognitively. This is achieved by providing and coordinating educational activities through a whole school approach, which develops an awareness and understanding of concepts necessary for life and an educational experience within the Catholic faith. Our core mission is to inspire students to learn, achieve and serve with integrity. Our core values TRUE - Trust, Respect, Unity, Excellence - are central to our school’s philosophy. We aim to nurture each child’s unique abilities, providing an environment where they can flourish emotionally, spiritually, academically and socially. By fostering a love for learning, we encourage students to look beyond appearances, seek deeper truths, and discover true happiness. We strive to develop each child’s full potential by recognising their individual giftedness. Learning is facilitated through a developmental approach that promotes cooperative and inquiry-based learning, which are strengthened using up to date technology. We provide a relevant, comprehensive and varied curriculum to suit a wide range of student needs, interests and abilities. All of these processes assist each child to be the best that they can be. We believe that parents are the foremost educators of their children, and our partnership with families is essential to student success. We encourage active parental involvement in school life. Together, we create a strong community spirit, where children learn not only from structured lessons but also from the adults around them. This partnership between home and school is mutually supportive, and it is our goal to work together in nurturing and guiding each child. At St Peter's, parents and staff join in a shared mission: to support the personal growth and educational development of every student, helping them become fully integrated, compassionate and capable individuals. We are very fortunate at St Peter's to have a very talented group of staff members, who see their roles in educating the children at St Peter's as their vocation. The time, energy, effort and expertise given to the children is second to none, and while we are well-resourced, the greatest resource we have is our wonderful staff. St Peter's is a strong community that works together as one with parents, students, staff and the parish to foster an environment that can enable us all to reach our fullest potential. I look forward to seeing you in the future and hope that you will take the time to journey with us through our school and will soon see life at St Peter's Primary School.
