About our school

Villanova College is an all-boys Catholic school in the Augustinian tradition, located in Coorparoo, dedicated to nurturing young men of intellect, faith, integrity, and courage.

With a rich history and a vibrant community of 1,600 students, Villanova College offers an educational experience that supports boys at every stage of their development. From Year 5 to Year 12, students are known, valued, and encouraged to discover their potential and how they can make a positive impact in the world.

An Augustinian approach to education fosters a strong sense of community in which learning thrives. The College’s success relies on deep partnerships between students and teachers, and teachers and parents. These principles extend to all members of the Villanova community, including past students and families.

More than just a school, Villanova College is a place where lifelong friendships are formed, values are lived, and every family is warmly welcomed. We invite you to explore how your son can belong, grow, and thrive within our supportive and inspiring community.

Principal's Message

At Villanova College, we believe education is a partnership built on community, connection and care. Guided by our Augustinian values, we work closely with parents to form young men of character – learners who think critically, act with compassion and seek truth in all they do. Our holistic approach balances academic excellence, wellbeing, faith and service, empowering students to grow into confident and grounded individuals. Together, we nurture a community where every student feels known, valued and inspired to make a positive difference in the world.
