this school is bad because they care abt the girls dresses rather than their education. all the teachers don't understand the girls there is always a favourite one in the classroom for the teachers and they are very racist. Like what is they're problem, they took a girls phone away when someone was calling her and when she was abt to decline it one of the teachers snatched it and started to look at her texts. She should have some privacy. They are also very biased. and don't even get me started on the religion teachers, they are all dumb and don't teach any mercy values. The toilets need to be cleaned all the time cause i hear my sister talk abt how dirty the toilets are. they care more about the girls eyelashes and hair than what and how they learn. There are only a few good teachers in here and some teachers can't even pronounce something allowing my sister to not understand causing her to not learn. FIX THIS SCHOOL IMMEDIATELY.

This school is horrible. There are so many bad experiences that have happened in and with this school. Students go on a beach trip every year. A girl that I know was learning about how applying sunscreen every 1-2 hours is good for your skin in PDHPE and then she comes home face red badly burned and teachers had ‘no time’ for them to come back and let them reapply sunscreen at the beach trip. She ended up getting blisters on her forehead and her cheeks. I would not recommend this school and that is only one incident that has occurred at this horrible school. Who knows what will come next?

I am very grateful to the Principal and teachers that spend countless hours to ensure my daughter gets a good quality education, a safe environment and ensures that she stays positive and respectful at all times. They nurture and teach our children to give back to the community. The school offers a great atmosphere with various opportunities for our girls to learn and grow. The school values the constructive opinions and feedback from all parents. Thankyou Catherine McAuley staff for a job well done and teaching my daughter life skills to survive in the real world which is priceless!!!

As a parent children currently enrolled at Catherine McAuley Westmead, I can confidently say that this school has exceeded our expectations in every way. From its nurturing environment to its commitment to academic excellence and holistic development, Catherine McAuley Westmead stands out as a beacon of quality education.

One of the most impressive aspects of this school is its dedicated teaching staff. They not only possess deep subject knowledge but also demonstrate a genuine care for each student's progress and well-being. The small class sizes ensure that every child receives personalized attention, which has greatly contributed to my children's academic growth and confidence.

Went for the school Open day. Our daughter moving to yr 7 in 2025. We Found the Place really well maintained..Staff very approachable..the two year 11 girls that gave us the tour where wonderful... we spoken & very well presented...

The classes changed while we where doing our tour, and it was a orderly movement of children to the next class..

We hope we get the opportunity to send our daughter to such a school..

(I cannot understand the poor comments i feel they are fake, if you have a genuine problem with the school. I dont think this is the platform to air it..behind the anonymity of Google reviews)

Thanks for the tour .

We love this school, the teachers and staff are very supportive, kind, and caring and the school provides comprehensive education in the Mercy tradition. The Principal does a fantastic task of running the school. Our girls attended this school, and we are very proud that they attend Catherine McAuley. The school offers many opportunities, such as academic- programs with Western Sydney University, STEM, World Youth Day, various sports, VET courses, and clubs. We love the community that Catherine McAuley provides, inclusion for all, friendly and welcoming atmosphere. We like the fact that the young ladies are dressed appropriately as per school policy. The girls are respectful and polite. I see girls from Catherine McAuley offer their seats on trains for others. My husband and I highly recommend Catherine McAuley to any family that wants a school that provides a Catholic education, a safe, caring, and welcoming atmosphere, cares for and supports young ladies, choices in a variety of subjects that not all schools offer, and empowers and encourages young ladies to choose their career paths for the future.

The staff and executive at this school are exemplary. The student accolades are nothing short of impressive. I am so glad our daughter is a part of this wonderful institution which teaches Mercy values at its core. All the fundamentals are addressed to equip our young ladies with valuable and unique skills necessary for post secondary education life. 🙏

This school is revolting. So many of the teachers aren't actually teaching the kids, they're simply laughing with my daughter which is sometimes good but my daughter has come home multiple times telling me how her teachers have not taught her anything. The school says that they focus on 'mercy values' but they do nothing of the sort. They only focus on uniform instead of what they're actually teaching the kids. The teachers all trauma dump about their own lives and humiliate children in front of entire classes. They are only rewarded if they do perfect in a calss.
