Established as a special school in 1957, Mater Dei is now an organisation that provides early intervention services and a residential program as well as education for babies, children and young people with an intellectual disability or developmental delay.

Our Early Intervention Program and Living Skills Program are both now under the directorship of Pamela Templeton who was the Assistant Principal of Mater Dei for many years.

Also under the banner of Our Services is the very popular Mater Dei Special Education Conference.  This Conference has been held biannually since 2002.  Please check back to the Conference page in the near future for updates on the 2012 Special Education Conference.   Until then, why not check out the Keynote Presentation recordings from our 2010 Conference.
