St Mary’s College, Melbourne VIC

We are a school for all, welcoming, nurturing and empowering all students. St Mary’s College is inner Melbourne’s only Catholic co-educational secondary school. Our values of respect, justice, compassion, inclusivity and courage guide our teaching and support of students. Girls and boys at St Mary’s College learn together in an environment of respect, excellence, enquiry, challenge and fun. Our learning environment reflects the world beyond the classroom. Our College offers a mix of modern learning environments and historic architecture that provides a physical link to our history and Catholic traditions of Edmund Rice and Nano Nagle. Our two adjoining campuses work as one. Year levels have a home base at one campus and have the flexibility to access specialised learning areas and excellent facilities, such as our beautiful oval and indoor swimming pool at the Edmund Rice Campus and Textiles, and Food Technology at the Presentation Campus.

Program Year 9 at St Mary’s College is an exciting experience of collaborative learning where positive relationships, student voice and real-world thinking are prioritised. Relationships are at the core of Year 9, a catalyst that motivates our students as they enter the critical phase of middle adolescence. We explore relationships with one another; relationships with family and community and most importantly relationship with self. Throughout the year we connect students with the wider community in rich and meaningful ways, working with local councils, and community groups, Indigenous groups and voluntary organisations. It is a truly transformative year. Our students are based in a dedicated state of the art learning area at the Presentation Campus
