St Matthew's School - St Matthew's School 25 Ross Street
About St Matthew's School
The Mercy Sisters were asked to set up a Catholic school in Marton. A group of Wellington Sisters arrived in Marton in 1915.
There was no convent for them to live in, so the Parish Priest offered for them to live in his presbytery until a house was bought for the Sisters.
The Sisters began teaching in the Church, with a large green curtain screening the altar. This meant the Church was used as classrooms during the week, and was then turned back into a Church for Mass on Sunday.
A school was soon built on land near the Church and was opened in 1916. The new school was named St Matthew’s School.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wasn't very good when I went here many years ago. A lot of hassle with teachers and principal. You should consider other nearby schools first, but unfortunately it's the only local Catholic school.
