Thank you to all the Parents, Grandparents and Friends who came along to our 40th birthday celebration on the last week of term!
It was a great day and the students and staff enjoyed celebrating as a school community. Many ex-students came to celebrate our 40-year celebrations sharing fond memories of their schooling at Good Shepard primary.
The school was established in 1979 with just 23 students by the Capuchin Franciscan Friars and administered by the Poor Clare Sisters being lead by the original Principal was Sr Julian Heath.
Since then the fantastic school community has come a long way, growing its vast multicultural roots, now with more than 780 children and 66 staff members!
The school continues to have exceptional educators as well as students continuing to have a positive school community growing together as each student continues their learning journey.
