Marist College Canberra is a Year 4 – 12 Catholic learning community for boys. It is founded in the Marist tradition of St Marcellin Champagnat and our core values derive from our understanding of the gospels and Marist characteristics. We are in the business of forming fine young men, with strong minds and gentle hearts. A combination of heritage, innovation, and care is what makes the Marist experience truly distinctive.

From Year 4 to Year 12, our students follow a smooth, continuous journey that builds confidence and capability. Each stage is designed to prepare them for success in school and beyond. Guided by Marist values, we inspire young men to live with kindness, resilience, and purpose.

Our explicit teaching model puts boys at the heart of learning, tailoring approaches to their unique needs and strengths. Every student is supported to grow academically, socially, and personally and our pastoral care helps them feel supported, connected, and inspired to grow.

Our modern, purpose-built facilities support learning, creativity, and wellbeing across all areas of school life. Students are inspired to explore, innovate, and achieve their best every day.

While young men and boys can and do excel in many types of educational institutions, schools for boys focus with intention on learning that addresses not only how to excel in academics but also how to grow into a man of integrity and empathy. At Marist, community comes first. It’s the friendships, support, and shared experiences that make our College a place where students thrive.
