About our school

At Lourdes Hill College, each student is nurtured to become a global star who champions achievement and grows as a leader in the community. With technology bringing education, classroom design and learning to new heights, Lourdes Hill College’s cutting-edge approach combines the Good Samaritan ideal of balance, citizenship and hope for the future.

The College takes pride in its academic success with students supported to achieve on any path they choose. The Vocational Education Training (VET) program provides a wide range of opportunities for students to complement their learning while embracing their passions. An extensive range of subjects on offer to both ATAR and non-ATAR students provides a unique learning experience with many opportunities for success.

These opportunities extend beyond the classroom through our broad-spectrum Co-curricular Programs including Sports, Service and Culture. Through Co-curricular learning, students learn new skills, develop their leadership abilities, and provide service to the College and the community, as well as engage with like-minded peers.

Some of these programs include Debating, AFL, Netball, Rowing, Dance and Robotics and the opportunity to work alongside Eat Up Australia, Rosies and Wesley Mission, as well as participating in Dance and Drama.

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 at the core of our holistic education. Our students are encouraged to explore their unique gifts and talents and respect individual differences.
