Our School is a centre of excellence in teaching and learning, pastoral care,worship, and service, providing a high quality, inclusive, caring, and accessible Christian education. Anglicanism underpins all aspects of life at St Mark’s. Discovery of our Anglican identity is offered to the School community – students, families, and staff – through exploring faith, cultivating reason, participating in worship, embracing pluralism, developing character and engaging in service.

Our community is important to us. Each student and each family is supportedto feel safe and to have a sense of belonging to the School community beyond their time as a student. Our School enables every student to be who they are and to engage in pathways appropriate to them, as they grow in an environment of high care and high challenge.

St Mark’s provides all students with opportunities to learn, grow and succeedthrough:

• relevant and personally meaningful curriculum;
• learning in both the classroom and through external partnerships; and
• group activities and service learning opportunities to discover more about themselves and others.

St Mark’s isn’t an 8.30 – 3.25 place – we encourage students to become part of the bigger community. 

St Mark’s is committed to providing well planned and organised co-curricular and extra-curricular activities to all students throughout the year.  We strive to provide opportunities to suit a range of student interests and abilities, and to encourage students to try new pursuits.

Students can participate in both interhouse and interschool programs at Primary and at Secondary School, with opportunities in a variety of fields, including sporting, cultural and academic activities.

Quality pastoral care influences the tone of the whole School, creating a caring and nurturing environment in which young people feel safe and secure. This allows students to have a voice, feel connected, and empowered to participate in the community, knowing that they belong to something important; it makes them feel valued and encouraged in their learning, personal growth and social development. 

St Mark’s Anglican Community School is the first school in Western Australia to offer a Drone Piloting course - the Certificate III in Aviation (Remote Pilot – Visual Line of Sight) -  as part of our Senior School offerings in 2019.

Through the course, St Mark’s is set to deliver a future-focused program that appeals to (and inspires) students in both General and ATAR pathways. The program is a fantastic opportunity for students to think and work in different ways and gain accreditation towards achievement of their WACE.

Successful completion of the course will provide students with a skill set to achieve a nationally recognised qualification, leading to career opportunities in an innovative and rapidly developing industry. It is exciting to be able to offer a hands-on approach to learning in an authentic and exciting STEM context.

Globally, there is a compelling need to develop transferable learning-how-to-learn capabilities in young people that enable them to thrive and contribute to ever-changing, new and challenging contexts.

St Mark’s encourage students to apply their knowledge and practical skills and processes when using technologies and other resources to create innovative solutions, independently and collaboratively, that meet current and future needs. The educational opportunities offered to students are designed to engage, excite and challenge.

St Mark’s values the development, implementation and use of technologies to enrich the curriculum and provide flexibility to its delivery, and engage students in learning. We are working to empower students to become cooperative and collaborative workers, dynamic problem-solvers, creative and critical thinkers and digitally literate citizens.

The course will run under the auspices of the St Mark’s Science Department. The announcement last year that the School was to offer the course was met with a very positive response from students, commencing with two classes this year.
