Prep 2026 Enrolments Closing Soon

Our Prep 2026 journey has already begun! Families who joined us for our recent Come & Play sessions with Miss Rachael have seen first-hand how our newest students are beginning to connect, learn, and grow together. The excitement in the classroom is real; friendships are forming, curiosity is sparking, and the class is already starting to take shape.

We still have a few spots available before our official Prep Transition Program begins on 28 October 2025. If you’re considering St Columba’s for your child, now is the perfect time to book a tour, meet our team, and secure your place.

Why Choose St Columba's?

At St Columba’s, we believe every child should feel seen, supported and inspired to do their best. When families join our community, they often tell us they chose our school because their child will have:

  • A warm, welcoming environment where they are truly known

  • Dedicated teachers who nurture curiosity and confidence

  • Small class sizes with space to grow and shine

  • Exciting learning opportunities in our STEAM Discovery Lab

  • A strong sense of belonging through our Catholic values and community spirit

We’re proud that this commitment to innovation and care has been recognised beyond our school gates. St Columba’s received The Educator’s 5 Star Innovative School Award in 2024, and again this year was honoured with The Educator’s 5 Star Best Schools Award — celebrating our place as one of Australia’s leading schools.

Our students are also achieving at the highest levels. Recently, they performed exceptionally well in the International Maths Challenge, demonstrating the strength of our teaching programs and the confidence our students have to apply their skills on a global stage.

At the heart of it all, our goal is simple: to help your child thrive — academically, socially and personally.
