Daramalan College is a co-educational independent Catholic secondary school established by the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MSCs) in 1962. All aspects of the college are underpinned by the MSC ethos: to be on Earth the heart of God.
Our strong emphasis on social justice and a spirit of family has at its heart a focus on ensuring that all members of the Daramalan community are valued and supported, especially in times of need.
The College offers a comprehensive and diverse academic, pastoral, spiritual, vocational, sporting and cultural education, preparing competent and confident young adults for the world beyond school.
At Daramalan, our holistic approach to education enables us to provide something for everyone.
The College’s House and Pastoral structures ensure that all students are known, and their potential is nurtured.
As a community that inspires learning, nurtures potential and is strong in faith, we place a high value on providing quality and authentic learning opportunities for all students, with growth being our key focus.
Our students achieve excellent academic results and have a reputation for being well prepared for further study or employment after completing school.
The formal curriculum is supported by the College’s outstanding facilities in science, STEM, the performing arts and hospitality, enabling our students to successfully follow a range of pathways, including the study of a variety of vocational qualifications across a number of subject areas.
Complementing the academic curriculum and forming another pillar of the College’s holistic approach are our outstanding and diverse co-curricular programs. These include six weekend sports; performing arts in the form of award-winning theatre and drama productions, dance, and music, including bands, ensembles and choir; our STEM program, incorporating our VEX Robotics Club and partnerships with CSIRO and universities through the CREST program; debating, mock trial and creative writing; student-led committees in the areas of environment, social justice and liturgy; and academic competitions across a number of disciplines, including science, mathematics and languages.
There is certainly something for everyone at Daramalan, a community that inspires learning, nurtures potential and is strong in faith. Visit the website.
