All inclusive co-ed college
WHEN families visit St Stephen’s Catholic College at Mareeba for the first time, they are surprised by the size and quality of the facilities.
Principal Gary Conwell said the college nestled in a quiet neighbourhood on the edge of Mareeba township provided a nurturing learning environment for students of all faiths and backgrounds, from a region as far north as Mossman and out to the Atherton Tablelands.
“St Stephen’s is a co-educational secondary college offering a quality, affordable, educational experience for students in years 7 to 12,” he said.
“With a foundation in Catholic values, each student at St Stephen’s is guided to develop their unique strengths as they are prepared for a successful and enriching life after school.
“This is achieved through a structured pastoral house system, where students form close and supportive connections with key pastoral staff.
“The college also has dedicated pathways staff who work closely with students as they plan their journeys for their final years of schooling and beyond.
“The inclusive college community welcomes students of all backgrounds and faiths, and the diversity of the student body adds to the richness of the school community.
“Choosing a secondary school for your child is one of the most significant decisions parents will make.
“It’s important that the school you choose reflects your family values, offers a quality learning experience and prepares your child for post-school transitions.
“I invite families to contact our community liaison Maree Lopez to arrange a time to visit and explore what we have to offer your family.”
