Catherine McAuley, Westmead, is a Catholic secondary girls' school in the Mercy tradition. In embracing our Mercy heritage, we aspire to a God-centred way of life and commit to excellence in girls' education, empowering young women to be actively involved in social justice. We value our diversity and inclusiveness and affirm the dignity of each person. In the 2008 School Certificate students achieved above the state mean in all of the examinations. Catherine McAuley appeared 99 times in the honour roll for students achieving over 90% in a subject in the HSC. A broad range of programs has been used to develop students' understanding of respect for each other and responsibilities for their own actions. Pastoral care lies at the core of our responsibility to provide a safe and caring environment for students. We offer extra curricular activities, including performing arts, sporting activities, public speaking, music lessons, leadership and social justice forums. More information can be obtained from the school's website.
