At St Brigid’s Catholic Primary School Marrickville, we are blessed with a community that reflects the richness and diversity of our world.

Our families bring a wide range of cultural traditions, languages and experiences, and this diversity strengthens our identity as a welcoming and inclusive Catholic school. Each day, our students learn from one another, growing in understanding, respect and compassion as they prepare to take their place in an ever‑changing world.

We are committed to living our school motto: ‘Alive in Christ’ through a focus on school values. The values of respect, love, peace, justice, compassion, hospitality and stewardship are evident in our practice, empowering students to make a difference in their world, building positive relationships and promoting high‑quality lifelong learning. Central to this is our belief that every child can strive for personal excellence. We encourage students to set goals, embrace challenges and take pride in their growth, knowing that perseverance and curiosity open pathways to future possibilities.

Guided by the charism of St Brigid, we aim to be a community of hospitality, hope and service. Our Catholic identity shapes the way we teach, learn and care for one another, and as part of Sydney Catholic Schools, we remain committed to educational excellence and to ensuring every child is known, valued and supported to flourish.

We are also proud of our strong and enduring partnership with Casimir Catholic College. This connection provides a clear and supportive pathway for our students as they continue their learning journey, reinforcing the deep bonds within our Marrickville Catholic community and inspiring students to look confidently toward their future.

Together with our dedicated staff and engaged families, we continue to build a school where faith is lived, diversity is celebrated and every learner is encouraged to shine brightly.
