Stella Maris College
About Us
Stella Maris College is an independent girls' Catholic College founded in 1931 by the Sisters of the Good Samaritan in the Benedictine tradition. Stella Maris College prides themselves on the care and development of young women who through living the Benedictine values, will make a significant and positive difference to our world. All that we do is based on our values: compassion, justice, balance, hospitality and wise stewardship.
Our Mission
Stella Maris College endeavours to give our students strong academic foundations and values throughout their lives. We offer stimulating and challenging experiences to students during their time at Stella Maris College, while they are assisted in their preparation to meet, with confidence, the demands of post-college education and employment.
