St Catherine's Primary School is called to offer the riches of education and culture to the children of St Michael's Parish, Berwick. Situated in the south-east growth corridor of Melbourne, the school was established in 1996 with 67 students and enrols over 600 students.St Catherine's shares the site with the junior campus of St Francis Xavier Regional College.

Inspired by the life of St Catherine of Siena we undertake to encourage in the students the values of faith, strength and courage, a desire for peace, a compassionate response to the needs of others, a belief in prayer and a life-long love of learning.

We provide opportunities for young people to participate in a wide range of activities. The children participate in specialist subjects of physical education, library, Japanese (Years 4-6), and ICT. The annual concert, art show and sports day are highlights of the year. The school offers extra support to students through the Reading Recovery, Extending Mathematics Understanding and Phonemic Awareness programs.
