St. Thomas, Drysdale

Welcome to St Thomas Primary School, Drysdale

We warmly welcome you to St Thomas Primary School, proudly part of the St Thomas Parish in Drysdale. Since our founding in 1997, we have built a strong tradition of providing Catholic education to families across the Bellarine Peninsula.

Today, our school has an enrolment of 430 students, learning across 19 classes. We are committed to nurturing the whole child - spiritually, academically, socially and emotionally - in a safe and supportive environment.

Set on 11 hectares of expansive rural land, our school offers purpose-built learning spaces, diverse play areas, an oval, a dam, a creek and a chicken coop. Each area of the school has been thoughtfully designed to foster a strong sense of community, featuring fruit trees, vegetable gardens and dedicated learning environments that tailor to our junior, middle and senior students.

A safe, nurturing and empowering culture for all children and young people in Catholic schools.
