New year, new school?

St Peter’s College is still accepting second round offer applications for Year 7 2023.

Campus tours

We are looking forward to time when we can welcome prospective parents and students onto our campuses, but in the meantime, we invite you to join one of our virtual campus tours online.

Open campus tours are essentially, just as the name suggests, times when schools open their doors, when teachers get to showcase their classrooms, and when students act as guides. It goes without saying that in-person, onsite campus tours cn deliver the best overall picture, but virtual tours can not only deliver insight into the building and facilities, but they can also give the best opportunity to meet and discuss your individual child’s needs with members of the school teaching leadership, as well as hearing directly from our students about their experiences within the school.

A tour is a valuable resource as it gives you and your child an idea as to what their potential second home looks and feels like. They also provide information beyond what is available in school documentation and on websites. Campus tours are opportunities for parents to ask specifics about educational opportunities, extracurricular programs, pastoral care and community spirit.

St Peter’s College principal Chris Black said, “The 21st century learner will need a skill-set of critical thinking, effective communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively and creativily. St Peter’s College strives to provide opportunities for our students to engage and excel in all of these areas”.

Big decisions

“When selecting a secondary school for your child, you need to feel confident in not only what that school can deliver in Year 7, but how the school can provide a stimulating learning environment across the six years. Our desire is for students to run excitedly through St Peter’s College gates to commence their secondary schooling, and walk out at the end of Year 12, with confidence, a sense of purpose, and a feeling of positivity about their future lives,” Mr Black said.

“We are a proudly Catholic community with a focus on Christ at the centre of our learning with a strong focus on the development of the whole person, academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually.

“St. Peter’s College conducts regular student-led campus tours, onsite when we can, otherwise our virtual tours are a good place to start your research.

Book online at stpeters.vic.edu.au/enrolments

Limited vacancies exist for enrolments in 2022 and 2023, and the school is accepting Year 7 2024 and 2025 enrolments.
