About our school
A Siena education is grounded in our four Dominican pillars: prayer and contemplation; study; community; and justice. St Catherine of Siena is the College patron and role model: a woman who responded to the needs of her time with courage and conviction. She was passionate, courageous, a revolutionary, a peacemaker, a champion of the poor and a Truth seeker. All students are encouraged to become involved in community activities and justice initiatives, walking in the footsteps of St Catherine.
Our learning program is designed to cater for the interests, needs and collaborative ways in which girls learn, guiding students to pursue their interests in any given field and to continue their learning journey beyond the classroom. Secure, respectful and confident relationships at school enhance our students’ learning so they can experience a comprehensive and enriching education.
We strive through all teaching and learning experiences to help our students learn the importance of their roles within our community and beyond the College gates.
Since opening in 1940, Siena College has demonstrated the capacity to meet the evolving educational expectations of Church, staff, students and parents.
I find it a privilege and a pleasure to be the Principal at Siena College. For me, each day gives witness to a thriving community of learning and growth for students, underpinned by Dominican values and exercised by extraordinary staff.
I encourage you to visit us to learn more about our wonderful school. The Siena community is a warm and welcoming faith community of learning excellence; as you will quickly discover.
