Meet the principal, Megan Pearce
Welcome to St Mary’s School, Charleville. We are delighted to welcome your child to the St Mary’s family, and we can’t wait to share this journey with you and your child.
I believe every child has the right to become literate, socially equipped and emotionally balanced. I believe every child is worth whatever it takes and can succeed in their learning. I believe maximum learning occurs when significant engagement takes place between the student, teacher, parents and caregivers.
At St Mary’s, we have a caring, expert teacher in every classroom committed to knowing each student personally, and who is ready to work with families for the benefit of every child. Our educators are skilled in all aspects of teaching students the way they learn best. They create personalised learning programs for each learner.
We are a community where every child is known, valued, and loved – not just for who they are today, but for who they are becoming.
We are united by a simple yet profound vision: every child can succeed and is worth whatever it takes. As Principal, I am dedicated to nurturing an environment where each student grows in a safe and supportive environment where values and learning go hand in hand. I believe in the power of relationships, the strength of community, and the importance of partnering with families to ensure every child flourishes.
Our approach supports the holistic development of every child – spiritually, academically, socially, emotionally and physically, empowering them to grow into the best version of themselves. We provide a strong beginning, laying solid foundations in literacy and numeracy that set children up for life. Our staff walk alongside each student with care and compassion, helping them grow in confidence, knowledge, and character.
Every day in the classroom counts and when families align with the school’s ethos, values and expectations at home, we see happy, thriving and courageous young people who graduate ready to take on the challenges of high school and life.
My goal is to continue to inspire and equip our educators with the best strategies, so they continue to build their expertise and increase learning confidence and achievement for every student.
I enjoy spending time with our students, and I am often seen in classrooms, on the playground and at local community events.
I invite you, as parents and carers, to be active partners in your child’s learning journey. Your involvement, encouragement, and presence make a lasting difference. Together, let’s build a future filled with promise, hope, and joy.
If you are considering enrolling your child at St Mary’s School, I invite you to come and see our beautiful school. I would love to show you around and I look forward to meeting you personally.
