Catholic Ladies' College
Welcome to Catholic Ladies' College
Catholic Ladies’ College is an independent secondary school for young women in Eltham.
At CLC students from Year 7 to Year 12 are empowered, supported and inspired to follow their path and reach their potential.
Our campus blends modern learning environments with state-of-the-art co-curricular facilities. Our eight hectare campus is sheltered from busy roads which creates a unique sanctuary for learning and wellbeing.
Our programs are designed to support creative and critical thinking with real-world application. A CLC education is holistic and hands on, with links to universities, industries and experts.
CLC fosters a stimulating learning culture of high expectations. Every student is empowered to grow, inspired to follow their path and reach their potential.
Why CLC?
We challenge our students to be the best version of themselves and to think about the impact they want to have on the world.
We are purposefully a medium size school with big opportunities. Our smaller class sizes enable a personalised approach to education where every student is heard and inspired.
We empower our students to influence change. We encourage our students to share their ideas, contribute to the decision-making process and impact the outcome.
From singing and soccer to social outreach, students are encouraged to explore new interests and pursue their passions beyond the classroom.
An all girls education
Research shows that girls at single-gender schools achieve better results in numeracy and literacy testing, as well as tertiary entrance scores than their co-ed counterparts. Girls at single-sex schools also feel less pressure to fulfil traditional gender stereotypes, whether in subject or career choices.
CLC is a place to belong
A place where each student can find their place with a range of education pathways, a focus on wellbeing at every level and a world of opportunities which encourage our young women to shape a positive and exciting future.
Forensic science and field trips. Music performances and maths tutorials. Writing workshops and yoga sessions. Fashion and food. Business and culture. Understanding the world and challenging conventional wisdom.
Our Year Level programs are designed to support our students as they move through each year level with confidence. From Year 7 to 12, we promote individualised learning to help students achieve their best and to discover what they love.
Life beyond school & Our Careers Program
A CLC education is holistic and hands-on, with links to universities, industries and careers, so students can see how their learning applies to life.
We create opportunities to explore and champion justice, enabling students to participate in a word far beyond the school gates.
Our Careers Program is designed to empower our students with information and inspire them to dream big. We challenge our students to think about the impact they want to have on the world as the young women that are going to lead our future.
