About our school

At St Mary’s College, our uniqueness lies in the way every student is genuinely known, valued and supported. As a Catholic co-educational secondary school guided by the Touchstones of Edmund Rice Education Australia, we are committed to educating the whole person — intellectually, socially, emotionally and spiritually.

Our small-school environment is one of our greatest strengths. It enables strong relationships between students and staff, personalised pathways, and a learning culture where no one is overlooked. We offer multiple senior pathways, strong wellbeing structures and a wide range of co-curricular opportunities, ensuring every student can find their place and pursue their passions.

Learning at St Mary’s is grounded in proven, high-quality teaching enhanced by thoughtful and balanced use of technology. Innovation is purposeful, never at the expense of human connection. We believe young people thrive when they feel safe, challenged and inspired.

With a proud heritage that brings together the legacies of CBC and PCW, our College is deeply connected to its community while looking confidently to the future. At St Mary’s College, belonging comes first — because when students feel known and supported, brilliance follows.

Principal's Message

Welcome to St Mary’s College, a place where relationships, respect and belonging shape everything we do. We work in close partnership with parents to support each student’s learning, wellbeing and growth, recognising that education is most powerful when school and home work together. Guided by our Catholic and EREA foundations, we provide a nurturing, inclusive environment alongside strong academic and co-curricular pathways.

Our focus is clear: to ensure every young person is known, supported and challenged to achieve their best as confident, compassionate and capable learners, ready to contribute positively to their world.
