Principal's Message
A very warm welcome to the St John’s, Silkwood community! St John’s prides itself on the culture and traditions built over the years at the school. The school’s proud history began in 1948 when the school was by founded by Parish Priest Fr Alfred Natali and the Missionary Franciscan Sisters. We are a very welcoming community that believes that working together to achieve a common goal brings success for all. Our staff, students and parents remain focused on our sense of being a ‘learning community’ and are proud of their great achievements over the years.

Last Saturday night we celebrated our final Whole School/Parish mass for the year. The students did a wonderful job with the readings and participation throughout the service. The supper afterward was a warm and joyful gathering, and everyone had a lovely time together. ⛪🥳😀 #stjohnssilkwood

St John's students made a splash at Tully Pool for their annual interhouse swimming carnival, enjoying the fun-filled day of competition and school spirit. A big thank you to the P&F for providing a yummy sausage sizzle for lunch and organising transport to and from the pool . We also extend our thanks to all the parents who were able to attend and support the students. A special thank you to the parents who supplied us with watermelon - it was much appreciated and enjoyed by everyone. What a fantastic day it was! 🏊🥳 #stjohnssilkwood
