Staff

Our staff deeply value intellectual pursuits as well as spiritual, cultural, sporting and arts endeavours. Our teachers are experts in holistic education – educating the whole child.

Catholic Education teachers are given multiple opportunities each year for quality professional development and they are expected to actively embrace change for improved student outcomes. We believe in the value of being life-long learners and we strive to be authentic role models for our students.


Townsville Catholic Education takes cyber safety very seriously and in an effort to reduce our staff being subject to scams, a decision has been made to remove staff email addresses from the school website.

To contact your child's teacher, please access their email address via the Compass app. To get in contact with other staff members, please contact
