Southern Cross Catholic College, Burwood NSW

Southern Cross Catholic College is an innovative Catholic co-educational secondary college with a difference. Students attending the college combine rigorous campus-based learning with real-life, work-based learning. 

Students combine studies for senior school qualifications with higher level national qualifications at Certificate II and Certificate III level. Southern Cross students graduate work-ready and with dual qualifications. 

The college provides quality applied learning pathways in first class facilities. The focus on applied learning – allowing students to learn by doing – is supported by the college’s enterprise department and extensive affiliations with business and industry partners. Our college graduates have been regular finalists and winners of Australian and NSW Training Awards. 

The integration of campus-based and work-based learning provides an ideal opportunity for students to flourish and develop valuable employability skills, whilst also encouraging an individual’s creativity and passion for Music, Dance, Drama or Musical Theatre through the Performing Arts specialisation.
