Give your child the best opportunity to develop academically, spiritually and socially.
Corpus Christi is a Catholic coeducational primary celebrating the uniqueness of each learner and committed to providing each student with a learning program that is contemporary and personalised and a learning environment that is inclusive, supportive and challenging.
Located in Cranebrook, we are a multicultural school which seeks to live out the values of Christ in a caring and supportive environment.
Educating for faith and life
Corpus Christi Primary School students are part of a vibrant faith community. We live out our faith by:
- celebrating Liturgies of the Eucharist as a school, grade and class
- opportunities for class leadership of prayer at school assemblies
- recognising the unique gifts, talents and efforts of individual students during school assemblies
- providing opportunities for adult faith formation
- holding Lent/Advent prayer focus groups and a staff reflection day
- celebrating the Sacrament of Reconciliation with their class.
Community Involvement
