Every student is catered for through our comprehensive curriculum, complemented by a holistic wellbeing program, access to a variety of sporting pathways, and the opportunity to be a part of our leading performing arts and visual arts programs. Leadership opportunities are open to all students, along with access to a variety of youth ministry programs, designed to strengthen our Catholic faith and give back to our community. 

Our College motto, “Deus meus et omnia” (My God in all things) is at the heart of all that we do, underpinned by a strong sense of history and Catholic faith. St Clare’s students are encouraged to complement their faith with a proactive approach to their learning. 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. Immersed in a positive learning environment, she is encouraged to take ownership of her learning journey. At St Clare’s our core principles are respect, resilience and responsibility. As a College, it is our privilege to prepare our graduates to be lifelong learners who reflect these principles with strength and empathy.
