Hear From Our Students
“There are so many things that are lovely about St Cecilia's. Firstly, we have lovely computers. We have funny teachers who make us laugh and take care of us. We also have two playgrounds. My favourite one is the top playground because it has the monkey bars. I love junior choir, and we sometimes get to go on excursions to sing in front of people. When I come into St Cecilia's it makes me feel all warm and joyful.”
Charlotte, Student
“What I like about St. Cecilia’s is the people. When I came to St. Cecilia's I made new friends on the first day because all the students were so welcoming and friendly. But also, the teachers are so kind and caring of anyone. They will always ask polite questions like “How are you going?” The people of St. Cecilia’s have made my experience 10 times better. I have become a more independent and better person at St. Cecilia’s.”

Hear From Our Parents
"Our family has been part of the St Cecilia's community since 2016 and with our fourth child starting in 2022, we will be there for some time to come. The sense of school spirit, moral values and community that encompasses both students and families is something that is highly appreciated and cherished. We have found the teaching staff and faculty to be professional, motivated and very approachable and their knowledge of our children is always comprehensive. St Cecilia's has provided a safe and nurturing environment in which to learn and develop academically and socially and we're incredibly thankful to the school for this opportunity for our children."
Sarah, Parent
