Learning at Delany
Delany is a place where curiosity, imagination and love of learning thrive through working together to provide the most effective, engaging and challenging learning experiences for students.
As part of a system of Catholic schools in the Diocese of Parramatta, we’re working together to transform learning for students in Greater Western Sydney. This means reimagining and refreshing learning and teaching for today’s world and today’s learners.
The purpose and promise of a Catholic education is to inspire each learner to discover a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Our faith journey
Our Patrician heritage and Catholic values are integrated into school life with students participating in Religious Education, liturgies and retreat programs. In close partnership with parents and the Parish, we work to ensure the spiritual and social development of students.
