About our school
Nagle College is a Catholic secondary girls’ school that has been educating girls since 1965. Founded by the Presentation Sisters, the college offers girls a comprehensive, faith-filled secondary education. Everyone is welcome at Nagle College as we are an inclusive community that celebrates diversity and values the stories of all its members.
Nagle College is a place where young women can thrive. We support our students to develop into compassionate and confident young women, embodying our school values of Welcome, Faith, Learning, Courage and Action. Our school motto calls each member of our community to be people of action: ‘In Deed, Not Word’. Our students are encouraged to explore their faith, develop a deep sense of social justice, and be compassionate and kind people. Further, our mantra of ‘Presentation People Make a Difference’, is lived out daily. Through various community service initiatives, we encourage our students to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
