Principal’s Welcome

Larissa Boyhan – Principal of St Richard’s Primary School

Welcome To St Richard’s

My name is Larissa Boyhan, and as the Principal, I am delighted to welcome you to our school community. At St Richard’s, we work in partnership with families and teachers to support every child on their educational journey.

St Richard’s is one of two Catholic primary schools within the St. Peter Eymard Parish. Our school is a welcoming and inclusive community that provides wonderful learning opportunities for all students. At St Richard’s, children are at the heart of everything we do.

We are committed to improving learning outcomes for all our students. With high expectations for every learner, we follow the Melbourne Archdiocese’s Vision for Instruction, employing research-based teaching practices. Our explicit instruction approach ensures that every student builds a strong foundation in literacy and numeracy while also developing essential social skills. Additionally, we offer a variety of specialist classes and extracurricular activities to enhance each child’s learning experience.

A key strength of St Richard’s is the strong relationships between students, staff, parents, and the wider community. These relationships play a vital role in helping every child engage fully—cognitively, spiritually, and socially—in their education. Through these connections, we create a positive and supportive environment where students thrive.

Our school community is guided by Gospel values, promoting respect, acceptance, care for others, and environmental stewardship. We aim to inspire our students to live out these values daily.

As Principal, I am passionate about ensuring every child at St Richard’s achieves their full potential. Inspired teaching and learning are at the core of our mission, and we are dedicated to providing a safe, harmonious, and stimulating environment where every student can succeed.

Our school motto, “Living the Gospel, Learning Together, Creating our Future,” reflects our commitment to nurturing students who are ready to embrace the challenges of the future.

I encourage you to explore our “Online Video Tour” and invite you to contact the school or complete our online form to book a tour at your convenience.

We look forward to welcoming you to our St Richard’s community.

Warm regards,
Larissa Boyhan
Principal
