Principal's Welcome

I am privileged to be the Principal of Stella Maris College, a Catholic girls' school just metres from the beautiful beaches of Manly on Sydney's Northern Beaches. 

Stella Maris College is a school of Good Samaritan Education, offering an exceptional secondary education with a diverse and flexible curriculum supported by learning and pastoral structures that promote student wellbeing. This focus is reflected in our Higher School Certificate results where Stella consistently ranks among the top 100 schools in New South Wales and the best performing academic schools on the Northern Beaches. 

You will learn more about Stella through our website, but I urge you to join us on one of our campus tours where you will really experience the true essence of Stella Maris College.
