We offer our students a rounded education that supports personal growth based on Christian values. We encourage students to develop a knowledge of other cultures, languages and environmental and social issues.

As first educators of their children parents are welcome to become involved in their academic as well as spiritual education. Christian family values are supported and encouraged in all aspects of life in the St Brendan’s school community.

The professional, caring teaching staff members endeavour to uphold and impart Catholic Christian values and standards. The size of our community allows for the opportunity for individualised, professional attention to be given to each and every student.

St Brendan’s is situated on Hawtree Street in a quiet residential area between Ipswich Road and Beaudesert Road allowing safe and easy access for parents and children. For additional information we would be happy for you to contact us directly.
