Outreach & Retreat Days
Growing Compassionate Leaders Through Service and Reflection
At Loreto School Queenswood, we believe that learning extends far beyond the classroom. From Grade RRR to Grade 7, our learners engage in meaningful outreach and spiritual retreats that nurture empathy, responsibility and sincere service.
Every outreach initiative, whether packing care parcels, planting vegetables, or spending time with foster children, teaches our learners to serve with purpose and love.
Grades 3 up to Grade 7 go on day retreats that encourage quiet reflection, deepen their faith and connect classroom lessons to real-life action.
These experiences inspire our children to become compassionate leaders who live our values and make a difference in their world.

Rooted in Faith
Growing Hearts That Listen, Serve, and Believe
At Loreto School Queenswood, we believe faith isn’t time away from the classroom, it is time spent shaping the soul. In a world that often moves too fast, our moments of prayer, reflection and Mass are sacred opportunities for children to slow down, listen to God’s voice and build a strong spiritual foundation. Through our inclusive Catholic education that welcomes families of all faiths, our learners grow holistically:
-
Physically through play,
-
Mentally through learning,
-
Socially through acts of kindness and
-
Spiritually through a deepening connection with God.
We nurture a way of life grounded in love, sincerity and service ... because we are not just raising learners, we are "Growing faith-filled citizens of the world."
Learner Support
At Loreto Queenswood Primary, we believe in early intervention and ongoing support. Our dedicated Learner Support Program, at an adduitional cost, is available from Grade RRR to Grade 7, ensuring that every child receives the help they need to thrive, academically, emotionally and socially.
We identify learners who may benefit from additional support as early as Grade RRR, working closely with families and teachers to tailor interventions that build confidence and bridge learning gaps.
Whether short-term or ongoing, our support is aimed at helping each learner reach their full potential within a nurturing, inclusive environment.
We also collaborate with private therapists to offer 1-on-1 sessions when needed, supporting your child’s development every step of the way.
