Primary School

As St Dominic's journeys into the future with its ideals, vision and goals in mind, we remember our real purpose in life and in the education of our girls, and that is to maintain our values and principles. We will ensure that St Dominic's not only remains in the forefront of education but that it remains in the presence of God.
