Emmaus College is a co-educational Catholic Secondary College situated on two beautifully spacious Campuses. The College was established in 1980 through the amalgamation of St. Thomas More College and Chavoin College. There is a strong demand for enrolment in Year 7 at the College, with the total school population around 1400 students. VCE results are consistently above State averages, and all students are encouraged to strive for their personal best in all areas of College life. There is a healthy emphasis on the wellbeing of all students giving them the opportunity to find their passion through many extra-curricular activities. The Master Plan of the College delivers building projects of the highest standard. The specialist areas include a Senior Learning Centre, Sports Stadium, Performing Arts Centre, Science, Technology and Library Building, Woodwork and Engineering Block, Visual Arts and Textiles Studios, Food Technology rooms, and Cafés on both campuses. Emmaus College has extensive outdoor sporting facilities: a soccer pitch, AFL sized oval, tennis courts, and basketball/netball/volleyball courts. The opening of our Galilee Centre in 2017 has provided another world-class learning space to complement our outstanding facilities. It houses a 250-seat Lecture Theatre, Languages, VCAL, Learning Diversity, Careers and Psychologists. Emmaus College offers an extensive range of subjects covering all learning areas of the Victorian Curriculum. Students in Years 7 and 8 undertake the breadth of studies, while our bespoke Year 9 curriculum combines experiential learning with academic rigour. Year 10 students can pursue their interests in specialist subjects as well as select a range of VCE options. At Years 11-12, VCE, VET and VCAL pathways are available.
