Academy of Mary Immaculate has educated young women for 166 years. Our vision and values shape a learning community committed to girls’ education and supports the important role young women will play in the future of Australia and the world.

As the city school for girls, we sit at the crossroads of where education meets the real world. We believe students who feel secure in their learning environment will be confident making social connections and in pursuing academic goals.

Our Year 7 transition program creates opportunities for connection and belonging, through peer-led support and an embedded Wellbeing Program, so that students can explore and negotiate difficulties or challenges with a strong sense of identity, social justice and purpose.

From our location beside the Carlton Gardens, we conduct classes in Melbourne’s premiere learning and cultural centres – including the NGV, Melbourne Museum, ACMI and nearby world-class universities.

Our Year 9 cross-curricular program, Synergy, requires students to apply knowledge across all subject areas as they investigate an immersive learning project and produce robust research papers, which they present to the school community.

We match curriculum with extension and support programs and co-curricular subjects – including the Arts, sports, social justice and leadership initiatives – to help students pursue personal goals tailored to higher education and career pathways.
