Every child is different and so is his or her learning journey

Our approach to learning puts the growth of each individual child at the heart of schooling. We encourage independent thinking, learning and decision-making. Schools in the Diocese of Parramatta are places of wonder, exploration and endless possibilities. Emmaus is committed to providing unique and enriching experiences for all students. Provision is made for students with special needs through our learning support team. Our college also caters for students who have gifts and talents by providing a wide range of enrichment programs.

Each child’s unique strengths and needs guide the design of the learning opportunities we provide to our students.

After all, learning how to learn is equally important as what we learn!

Our expert teachers will tailor teaching to meet your child at their point of need, track how they are progressing, and respond with extra support when needed.
