St Ambrose Primary School

Canberra Private Schools introduces St Ambrose Primary School in Concord West, for all your education and learning needs.

St Ambrose School was established in 1924 and was staffed in earlier times by the Sisters of Charity, and remained administered by the Sisters of Charity until 1978. The school is situated in the municipality of Canada Bay and is adjacent to Bicentennial Park. Since these early times the school has been upgraded several times with the last major refurbishment project completed in August 2000. The school population has increased, which is due in part to the new housing developments at Liberty Grove, Breakfast Point and Rhodes. A demountable building was needed to handle an extra class group.

The 2011 student enrolment is 360 children ranging in age from 5 to 12 years. It caters for children and families from the Parishes of Concord West, Mortlake and Homebush.

The school is staffed by dedicated teachers and has always throughout its history been supported by parents, the St Ambrose Parish and the Catholic authorities.

St Ambrose is a special place where care underpins all that occurs. A friendly, co-operative family spirit permeates all aspects of school life. The commitment and dedication of theteachers ensures quality teaching and learning.
