About our school

 

 

 

 

St Laurence’s College is more than a school – it is a community which is deeply connected. Conveniently located in South Brisbane, Lauries as a Catholic school genuinely embodies the values of the Edmund Rice Tradition.

Our passionate staff combine state-of-the-art facilities and dynamic educational strategies to holistically develop our young men spiritually, morally, intellectually, emotionally, physically, culturally and socially.

It is seen when our young men are encouraged to reach and maximise their potential in all aspects of College life.
It is seen through the academic growth of our young men.
It is seen through our extensive academic and VET programs where our young men can flourish and pursue their dream careers.
It is seen in our musical program where our young men develop their skills and passion for the arts.
It is seen in our sporting programs, where our young men can improve and reach new heights.
It is seen in our community programs, where our young men engage in faith in action initiatives.

But most importantly, it is seen when our young men leave the College as well-rounded individuals with full hearts, ready to make a positive impact in society.
