ST JAMES PRIMARY SCHOOL

EVERY CHILD - EVERY DAY

At St James Primary School, we are committed to fostering excellence in all aspects of Catholic education—faith, learning, the arts, and sport. Guided by the teachings of Jesus Christ, we provide a nurturing environment where every child is known, valued, and loved.

Located in Banora Point, Northern New South Wales, St James Primary serves students from Kindergarten to Year 6 and is a vital part of the St Joseph’s Catholic Parish community in Tweed Heads. As a school deeply rooted in faith, we embrace our role in the evangelising mission of the Church, forming students who are inspired by Gospel values and empowered to live lives of faith, hope, and love.

Our Catholic identity is at the heart of all we do. We cultivate a learning environment where Christian attitudes, values, and traditions are lived daily, creating a welcoming and caring school community. In partnership with parents, pastors, and the wider parish, we strive to nurture the personal, spiritual, and academic growth of every student, enabling them to flourish and embrace life in all its fullness.

We invite you to learn more about our vibrant school community by exploring our School Improvement Flipbook and watching our promotional video, which captures the spirit and essence of St James Primary.

Acknowledgement of Country

We acknowledge that our school resides on the Lands of the Bundjalung Nation.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians who have walked and cared for this land for thousands of years and their descendants who maintain these spiritual connections and traditions.

We pay our respect to Elders past, present and future leaders.

We reflect on the millions of footprints that travelled the Dreaming pathways and continue to walk this land today. The Land we are on now, the land we live, work, breathe, eat and sleep: always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.

We walk alongside the custodians of this beautiful country, Australia, as we seek Voice, Treaty and Truth.
