Positive relationships
As educators of young people we know that every student has many gifts, talents and interests to uncover during their secondary schooling. We believe that participation in a range of co-curricular activities is an important part of the holistic development of the child as well as ensuring each young person develops a sense of belonging. Students who actively participate in co-curricular programs typically experience better academic results and enjoy higher satisfaction with their overall learning and school experience.

The wellbeing and care of our students are fundamental aspects of Marist Catholic education. The College places significant emphasis on our Pastoral Care Program based.
Principal's Message
As part of the Marist Schools Australia network, we combine timeless Marist values with exciting innovations in learning for the 21st Century. Our dedicated teachers are committed to preparing this generation of young people for the future.
Parents, students and visitors often comment on the welcoming, caring and inclusive nature of our Mt Maria College community.
While students leave our College with an excellent education, we are just as proud that our students graduate with a broad range of life skills, strong friendships and positive values gained through the many experiences they encounter at our College.
We expect the best of and for our students and support them as they encounter the opportunities and challenges inherent in our contemporary culture.
Our intention is that our students learn, grow, laugh, persist, support each other and work hard to be their personal best – all within our safe College family environment. Faith formation and social justice opportunities are grounded in the Marist Charism – our aim is for Jesus to be known and loved by our students and their families.
At Mt Maria College, we bring faith and learning to life. I look forward to personally welcoming you when you visit.
