Our Past

The College, as part of Nazareth Catholic Community, was established in January 2007. Our ethos is based on the life and work of Jesus of Nazareth and our Patrons. We strive to be people of justice, each committed to building community, nourishing family life and making the world a better place. Our community brings together families from the Albert Park/Findon, Flinders Park/Hindmarsh and Seaton parishes, as well as from the Mater Christi, Cardinia and Our Lady of the Manger Parish Schools and Siena College. Nazareth focuses on ways of engaging with families in a whole of life journey by providing resources, opportunities and ministries to support the religious, spiritual, social, emotional and intellectual growth and well-being of families. It is our goal to provide these services in a way that is holistic and integrated within a strong faith environment. Each student, his or her faith development and family are at the heart of our College.

Our Present

Nazareth Catholic College provides a strong Catholic faith environment where excellent outcomes are achieved by students across all dimensions of learning. We are a co-curricular College that provides a broad curriculum to satisfy the aspirations and skill-sets of our diverse range of students. Each student is supported to be his or her best. Students regularly engage with the community through varied initiatives, with social justice and outreach work playing a key role in student development. New and upgraded facilities and strong local community partnerships provide an innovative and nurturing learning environment for students. Young adults and recent graduates of the College are able to continue their faith life and community involvement through key activities and leadership roles such as coaching and tutoring, as well as Young Adult Masses, organised through the Young Adult Working Party.

Our Future

In the future, Nazareth will continue to build a culture of excellence and personal achievement, evidenced by outstanding academic results and a wide range of tertiary pathways for its graduates. In addition to this, Nazareth will be a key partner in a Trade Training Centre at Rosewater, which will commence operations in 2014. This program will improve students’ access to vocational education and training, and enhance their career prospects in the areas of metal fabrication, construction and hairdressing. Nazareth will also continue to expand its connections with young adults to ensure that we are able to nurture the spirituality of people at all stages of their lives.
