About Us

General Information

Located in Lake Coogee (formerly Munster) – St Jerome’s Primary School has a history of more than 90 years in the area and the school is also integral to the Parish of St Jerome's, Spearwood.

With close to 600 students from 3 Year Old Kindy to Year 6, the diverse and dynamic school life that is St Jerome’s Primary School, is reflective of the Parish and the multicultural communities which breathe life into our wonderful school. It has been meeting the spiritual, educational and pastoral needs of young people since 1935.

We have more than 70 teaching and non-teaching staff who are committed to providing a high level of pastoral care and quality education for students.


Success happens for every child, every day.


At St Jerome’s, we are proud to share with you the core statement that underpins all we do as a school community

This is not just a slogan; it is our shared moral purpose, carefully crafted through the collective reflection and commitment of all staff. Every teacher, education assistant, and leader at St Jerome’s has contributed to this statement. It is the result of many conversations, shared insights, and a deep sense of responsibility for the children in our care.

But what does this mean for your child and for you as parents?

It means that we believe every child is capable of success, not just occasionally, not just academically, and not just for some students. Every child, every day. This success might look different for each learner: it may be mastering a new concept in mathematics, reading aloud with growing confidence, showing kindness in the playground, or persevering through a challenge. Whatever it looks like, we are committed to recognising it, nurturing it, and building upon it.

This shared purpose guides our teaching, our decisions, our conversations, and our planning. It reminds us that learning is a daily journey and that each day is an opportunity for growth, belonging, and achievement. It calls us to be intentional, inclusive, and unwavering in our belief in the potential of every child.

We invite you as parents to partner with us in living out this shared purpose. Together, home and school, we can ensure that every child not only feels successful but is given the support, encouragement, and challenge needed to flourish.
