St Columba College is an R-12 co-educational Anglican and Catholic College, established as an ecumenical initiative by the Anglican and Catholic Archbishops of Adelaide opening in 1997. The College is renowned for being committed to high standards in all areas of school life. St Columba takes pride in its students' achievements, be they academic programs, sporting or creative endeavours as well as in their spiritual, social and emotional development. Within our Primary School, we have a clear focus on developing strong skills for students in numeracy and literacy, the foundation of success for all future learning. In addition to this students also have access to outstanding specialist facilities in Science, Performing Arts, Music and ICT. Our Middle School caters for the teenage years in a specific manner. A comprehensive curriculum is available to students who are supported and encouraged as they begin the task of planning for subject selections and their future pathways. Excellent facilities both educational and recreational are also a hallmark in our Middle and Senior years. Students in our Senior School can follow academic or vocational pathways, or a combination of both. They have access to a wide range of subject choices as well as personalised vocational counselling. Accomplished teachers work closely with students to ensure they have the best chance of being successful in their studies. Students at all levels are called upon to develop their leadership capabilities within a framework of understanding their responsibilities as members of a wider College community. The staff of the College are committed to working in partnership with parents to help students be successful and to consider post school options that are truly life-giving. The essence of College life is summed up in our Vision Statement: ‘To nurture in students and the community a close relationship with God, a passion for living and a life-long love of learning’. The College is a place where people are at the heart, where students are..
