St Mark’s Primary School Drummoyne continues to set a high standard for what a Catholic education can offer, combining academic rigour with a deep commitment to faith and pastoral care.

The latest NAPLAN 2024 results show strong performance in literacy and numeracy, reflecting the school’s personalised learning approach that empowers students to thrive not only academically, but also in character and purpose.

Principal Melissa Lentini said the success is the result of a shared vision and a consistent focus on student learning growth and positive wellbeing, all grounded in Catholic values.

“Our teachers are deeply committed to each student’s learning journey,” she said. “We work together to create an environment where students are challenged, supported and encouraged to achieve their full potential – not just academically, but personally, spiritually and intellectually. 

St Mark’s Primary School Drummoyne is part of the Sydney Catholic Schools (SCS) network, which educates almost 75,000 students across 147 primary and secondary schools.

A system-wide emphasis on professional development, evidence-based practice and faith underpins the school’s continued success.

In a recent independent analysis by Better Education, St Mark’s Primary School Drummoyne was ranked an impressive number 84 among Sydney’s Top 100 Primary Schools for 2025.

While SCS recognises that rankings are not the sole measure of school success, they reflect the high standards being achieved at St Mark’s Drummoyne and across the Sydney Archdiocese.
