Welcome to St Martin de Porres School

It is important that we recognize that schools are for children. Choosing the right school for your daughter or son will no doubt be a major decision for you. Parents entrust their children to a school to compliment and support the education that is occurring at home. It is important that you make the choice that aligns with your beliefs and values.

St Martin de Porres is a Catholic School within the South West Region serving the growing areas of Sheidow Park, Trott Park and Hallett Cove. The school opened in 1986. Today we have over 340 students from Reception to Year 5. St Martin de Porres School strives to build a sense of community, with students, their families, staff, parish and the wider community.

The school continues to build upon the spirit of Saint Martin de Porres. It is important that we keep the spirit alive in our midst, helping us discern Christian values that we hold as important, which are based on the Charism of St Dominic.

Our school, within the parish of Hallett Cove, is a place where we celebrate, teach about, give witness to and serve the Dream of Jesus – the Kingdom of God.

I encourage you to either contact the school for further information, or make an appointment for a visit during the day when it will be possible for us to demonstrate the facilities and educational opportunities available to all students.

Should you decide that Saint Martin de Porres School becomes the school, which is able to nurture, foster and develop the natural abilities within your son or daughter, I look forward to the opportunity of discussing these important matters in greater detail.
