Today's Boys, Men for Tomorrow

A Catholic School in the Edmund Rice Tradition

For boys in Years 5 to 12

At St Mary’s College it is our mission to empower students to be men of faith, integrity, action and excellence.

We provide boys the opportunity to achieve excellence in all areas of their holistic education guided by our four touchstones: gospel spirituality, inclusive community, justice and solidarity and liberating education.

At St Mary’s College, we focus on and are specialists in boys’ education, providing various relevant and modern learning experiences, as well as extra-curricular activities.

Established in Toowoomba in 1899, St Mary’s College has played an integral part in educating young men in regional Queensland for 125 years.

We open hearts and minds, through quality teaching and learning experiences, so that through critical reflection and engagement, each person is hope-filled and free to build a better world for all.

Gospel Spirituality

We invite all people into the story of Jesus and strive to make His message of compassion, justice and peace a living reality within our community.

Gospel Spirituality
Inclusive Community

Our community is accepting and welcoming, fostering right relationships and committed to the common good.

Inclusive Community
Justice & Solidarity

We are committed to justice and peace for all, grounded in a spirituality of action and reflection that calls us to stand in solidarity with those who are marginalised and the Earth itself.
