St Clare’s College offers a unique education experience in Sydney’s eastern suburbs. As one of Sydney’s oldest schools, founded in 1884, it offers students and their families an incredibly rich history. This history is underpinned by our Catholic faith. The College was founded by the Poor Clare Sisters, and is now a high-performing girls high school for the educational powerhouse, Sydney Catholic Schools.
At St Clare’s College, students enter the gates of our College and are enveloped into a community like no other. Each student has the opportunity to learn and grow in an environment that is inclusive and supportive, whilst being educationally challenging and exciting.
By providing experiential and integrative learning opportunities, our students develop into creative, innovative, and resourceful learners.
A St Clare’s girl thrives in the welcoming and inclusive culture of our College. We offer our students a positive learning environment, and they are encouraged to take ownership of their learning journey.
The strength of St Clare’s College is in its people, every one of us, and together, we are building a future defined by hope, compassion and leadership. As a College, it is our privilege to prepare our graduates to be lifelong learners who reflect these principles with strength andempathy.
