Parish Schools: St Ignatius Catholic Primary School and St Paul’s Catholic College (Secondary) are this parish’s two Catholic Schools, though some parishioners have children at Catholic secondary schools outside the parish bounds. Both are thriving schools. All Catholics are encouraged to have their children educated in a Catholic context.
