Garratt Publishing supports Australian Catholic schools with a comprehensive collection of textbooks, workbooks, digital resources, and classroom formation resources designed for early learning to senior levels.
Aligned with the rhythm of both the school and liturgical years, these resources reinforce the mission of Catholic education and enhance any school’s Catholic Identity. Our extensive range of practical RE classroom resources for both primary and secondary settings includes Scripture, the Gospels, Biblical literacy, and Mass and the Eucharist. We also cover Catholic Social teaching, Laudato Si’, sustainability and ecology, and social justice. You’ll also find a vast array of Sacramental workbooks and sacramental preparation materials, prayer books for children, prayer books for teens, tailored school diaries, and books that focus on Christian values.
Developed for Australian Schools
Many of Garratt Publishing’s locally developed resources have received a Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur from Australian bishops – confirming their doctrinal integrity and suitability for use in Catholic school classrooms. Additionally, we develop our materials to be accessible, pastorally grounded, and responsive to the needs of Australian Catholic school communities.
Curated for Australian Students
We offer a carefully selected range of Catholic Bibles for primary and secondary school students across Australia. Our collection supports biblical literacy, faith formation, and religious education at every stage. Importantly, we are the Australian distributor for the beloved Catholic Children’s Bible for primary classrooms and the popular Catholic Youth Bible for teens and young people in high school. These, and a variety of other Bibles and Bible translations, are available to order online. We deliver Australia-wide.
Supporting the Mission of Catholic Education
We understand that Catholic education asks a lot of Principals, teachers and school leadership teams, Catholic Identity and Mission Leaders, and Religious Education Coordinators. Schools are called to nurture faith, encourage reflection, build community, and help young people see the connection between Catholic tradition and the secular world they live in. Our trusted resources play an important role in this mission. For decades, they have helped teachers engage confidently in dialogue with students, fostering meaningful learning, and supporting young people to encounter the Catholic faith with both heart and mind.
Faith Formation, Scripture and Classroom Support
Garratt Publishing is proud to provide Catholic school resources Australia-wide. Each has a strong focus on helping teachers and students engage deeply with Scripture, prayer, sacraments, and Catholic identity. Our school range includes both print and digital religious education resources, practical teaching materials, and books for classroom discussion. You’ll also find formation titles that support curriculum needs and the broader mission of the school.
For schools choosing Bibles and Scripture support, our Bibles for Schools collection includes resources for primary and secondary students, along with support materials for teachers and leaders. These books help make Scripture more approachable for young people while giving educators the tools they need to guide reflection, learning, and prayer.
Supporting Catholic Students
We also offer faith formation resources that support schools across all year levels – from staff formation and Religious Education programs to sacramental preparation and whole-school mission initiatives. For teachers seeking Catholic teacher resources in Australia, our collection speaks to the real challenges of Catholic education today. We have resources for building confidence in faith, engaging students meaningfully, and thoughtful, classroom-ready support that doesn’t add to an already full workload.
Many schools also look for resources tied to the Church’s seasons and celebrations. Our Liturgy collection supports prayer and liturgical celebration throughout the Church. These include children’s liturgy, Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and Ordinary Time, helping schools mark sacred seasons with care, meaning and intention.
