Marian Catholic College | Kenthurst

Marian Catholic College opened in 1988 on the Kenthurst site with an enrolment of 53 Year 7 students. It is a co-educational, comprehensive Catholic secondary school in the Diocese of Parramatta, catering for students from Years 7 to 12. Currently there are 1065 students enrolled in the school.

The College was set up to provide a Catholic secondary education for children of families from the parishes of Arcadia, Kellyville and Kenthurst. Its origins reflect a large degree of parish community involvement in the years prior to 1988.

The school motto "Walk with Christ", chosen after widespread discussion with students and staff, represents our journey through school and life – a journey we all walk with Christ.

The school was named Marian Catholic College because it was founded in 1988 which was proclaimed a Marian Year of the Church. Thus the school adopted Mary as its patron. Mary is seen as our model in our human attempt to live the values of Christ.
