About our school
Caroline Chisholm Catholic College is a welcoming, faith-filled community based in Melbourne’s west, where students are supported to become the best they are called to be.
Spread across two campus locations at 65 and 204 Churchill Avenue, our unique structure provides single-sex education in Year 7 to 9, before students transition into a co-educational environment for Year 10 to 12.
The College is guided by our FACE values – Faith, Acceptance, Compassion and Excellence. Grounded in these values, our foundations of Faith, Wellbeing and Learning ensure every student experiences our mission in meaningful ways. Faith is expressed through prayer and action, inspiring students to live faith-filled lives and take part in student-led initiatives such as the Social Justice and Eco Committees.
Wellbeing is strengthened through family partnerships and specialist support teams, creating a nurturing environment that encourages student engagement and belonging. Learning is enriched by diverse subject offerings, with access to VCE, VET and VCE VM pathways, alongside specialised programs such as Aspire, Literacy Program, Numeracy Program, Encore Music and the Sports Academy Program.
At Caroline Chisholm Catholic College, education forms young people of faith, resilience and compassion, ready to shape a better world.
