Our history
Since 1950, St John's Primary has faithfully taught generations of students in the Riverstone area.
Our school began in 1950 when the Order of Saint Clare began teaching in Riverstone. The school enrolled over 100 students who were taught in the parish church.
The sisters of the Order of St Clare concluded teaching at St John’s Riverstone in 1981. We remain grateful for their early contribution to our school.
Over the years, our school continued to update and build learning spaces, outdoor facilities, and out of school hours care service.
St John's proudly celebrated our 70th birthday in 2020. We look forward to providing outstanding Catholic education for many years to come!
