About our school

Lourdes Hill College educates young women to embrace life and a passionate love of learning in a nurturing, inclusive and innovative Catholic learning community.

We equip each person to reach their potential and boldly embody Benedictine values, listening actively with the ‘ear of the heart.’

Students are educated and nurtured in the tradition of the Sisters of the Good Samaritan with state-of-the-art programs supporting the learning and development of each student.

Lourdes Hill College has a strong faith tradition and deep connection to our three stories: The Parable of The Good Samaritan, the teachings in the Rule of St Benedict and the miracle at Lourdes.

These stories inspire us to be people of kindness and compassion, peace, and community, hope and healing. We are called to find inner strength in our gentleness and bring this to our everyday lives.

Lourdes Hill College’s 2024-2028 Strategic Plan is built around three key pillars: Empower, Transform, and Benedictine Presence. These pillars reflect the College’s commitment to fostering holistic growth in its students and staff.

Principal's Message

As Principal, I am dedicated to the holistic education of our students. I believe education can create empowered, informed confident young people of faith and wisdom who are inspired to walk purposefully to follow the call of Jesus to ‘create a better world.’

A Lourdes Hill College education epitomises the fundamental elements of a leading secondary school. Through striving for academic excellence as part of a welcoming community our students are afforded a wealth of opportunities to thrive in a stimulating learning environment. Students are challenged to engage in our Co-curricular programs of Culture, Sport and Service with their well-being
