Catholic Education
The Cairns Diocese’s 30 Catholic schools and colleges provide a quality education to almost 11,500 students – over 6,700 primary and 4,700 secondary students.
Our schools extend from Tully in the South, west to Dimbulah on the Atherton Tablelands, and north to Thursday Island in the Torres Strait.
A Catholic education provides a foundation for life. It’s a quality education that is not merely academic, but also focuses on the full development of the child – intellectually, spiritually, physically, morally and emotionally. We challenge our students to find meaning and value in their lives, develop communal obligations and aspirations, espouse values which unite society infused by a commitment to social justice, and become compassionate and contributing members of our world.
