Welcome to Stella

We are delighted that you are considering Stella Maris College for your daughter's secondary education.

While our key intake is Year 7, Stella welcomes enrolments across all year levels, depending on availability of places. We strongly advise parents requesting a Year 7 place to submit an Online Registration as soon as possible to ensure that you receive an automatic invitation to join the formal application process.
