Gilroy Santa Maria College has always held a special place in our community. Our story began back in 1949 with the opening of Cardinal Gilroy College for Boys (with just 94 students) guided by the Christian Brothers and Santa Maria College for Girls, led by the Sisters of Mercy. We have since educated thousands of young people, carrying forward the vision of Blessed Edmund Rice and Catherine McAuley.
From our humble beginnings we have grown from one building, our Chapel, which continues to be the spiritual heart of our College, into a vibrant learning environment equipped for the opportunities of today and tomorrow. Students now benefit from modern facilities in science, sport, ICT and vocational training through our Trade Training Centre, Hospitality Centre and Salon. Through a variety of general subject offerings, alongside partnerships with distance education providers, we ensure every student can access pathways aligned with their passions and career aspirations.
As we marked our 75th anniversary in 2024, we reflected with gratitude on the legacy entrusted to us a legacy of Learning, Faith and Compassion. At the same time, we look ahead with confidence that we are equipping our students with the skills and agility to thrive in an ever-changing world.
