Principal's Message

St Mary of the Angels is a Catholic, co-educational Secondary College that welcomes families from Nathalia, Numurkah, Wunghnu, Tallygaroopna, Cobram, Yarroweyah, Strathmerton, Katamatite, Katunga, Barooga, Tocumwal, Finley (NSW) and many of the townships in between.

At St Mary of the Angels, we draw our example from Jesus Christ, who in turn inspired St. Francis of Assisi, and it is St Francis’ core values of justice, peace and integrity of creation in a spirit of gratitude and joy, that we celebrate and embrace.

For thirty three years the College was staffed mainly by the FMDM Sisters (Franciscan Missionaries of the Divine Motherhood) whose gift to this community was their strong Franciscan charism and faithfulness to the community.  We honour these women, many who came from England and Ireland, who supported and strengthened rural Catholic education in this region.

St Mary of the Angels prides itself on maintaining a family oriented and friendly atmosphere.  We support this through our Learning Advisor and Homeroom system, as well as through the many opportunities for parents and carers to visit the College throughout the year.

Thank you for joining us today on our website.
