A Good Samaritan School For Girls

Hospitality Balance Respect

Australian Residents

In line with our Benedictine values and Good Samaritan educational philosophies, the College is committed to providing a safe, caring and supportive environment that is responsible for the needs of our students academically, physically, emotionally, socially, spiritually and pastorally.

The College enrols girls whose parents (or guardians) seek a Catholic education, with enrolment preference applied in the following order:

  • Siblings of current students or students with past-pupil history
  • Catholic students from Catholic Schools
  • Catholic Students from Non-Catholic Schools
  • Non-Catholic Students from Catholic Schools
  • Non-Catholic Students from Non-Catholic Schools

In keeping with the philosophy of the Sisters of the Good Samaritan, low academic ability, financial or social status is no barrier to entry.
