About our school

 

Mater Christi College is uniquely situated in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges, easily accessible by public transport, charter bus or car, and draws students from a range of suburbs in the east, outer-east and south-eastern suburbs.

We belong to a group of ten schools on the east coast of Australia known as Good Samaritan Education and it is this strong tradition of honouring the voice and experience of women that drives our contemporary approach to girls’ education.

Faith, Learning, Wellbeing and Enrichment are the pillars on which our school sits and we work hard to ensure that each student has an opportunity to find her place.

We are intentionally middle-sized so that each girl is known; we provide a contemporary curriculum, a broad range of enrichment opportunities, as well as a safe place to learn and grow.

Principal's Message

There are many things we are proud of at Mater Christi College.  It would be difficult to go past our amazing staff, from teachers to education support, administration, facilities and finance staff, MCC staff are dedicated and committed to our mission as a Good Samaritan school.  Each one of them knows that students are the reason we are here.  Fundamentally, however, what makes us most proud is summed up by the sentiments of our outgoing 2025 College captains in their final speech to the community.  They told us that Mater was a safe and supportive place to grow up.  This is what we strive to be, a safe place for young women to learn and grow to fullness of life.
