Founded in 1923 by the Presentation Sisters, St Mary’s has been a cherished part of the Myrtleford community for over a century. Inspired by the life and mission of Nano Nagle, we continue to live out the Presentation charism - placing faith, compassion, and service at the heart of all we do. Guided by our school motto, “In Deeds Not Words”, we encourage our students to live their faith through action, kindness and a commitment to justice.
At St Mary’s, we offer a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child is known, valued, and supported. Our broad curriculum fosters academic excellence and emotional wellbeing, with engaging programs in literacy, numeracy, science, the arts, and Italian. We believe in educating the whole child, helping each student to flourish in heart, mind and spirit.
Faith is woven into daily life at St Mary’s. Through prayer, liturgy, and community outreach, our students grow in their understanding of Gospel values and learn to walk in the footsteps of Jesus and Nano Nagle. We strive to build a school culture where love, respect, and hope are lived every day.
We warmly invite you to become part of our St Mary’s family - a welcoming Catholic community where children are encouraged to grow, lead and shine.
Andrea O’Connor,
Principal
St Mary’s Primary School
