College Open Day

Marist College Canberra is an independent Catholic school for boys in the Marist tradition. We have been educating boys in Canberra since 1968.
WE KNOW HOW TO EDUCATE BOYS
At Marist we provide a balanced curriculum which aims to develop the all-round qualities of our boys.
Marist students are characterised as possessing “a strong mind and a gentle heart” and we urge our students to be caring, loyal and considerate of others.
Our boys, particularly in the senior years, are expected to be involved in one of the outreach or community service activities sponsored by the school.
Pastoral Care is a prime focus of the College. Each boy is known as a unique and accepted member of the Marist family. We provide an environment where boys are encouraged to develop as a person. The “Big Brother, Little Brother” program builds strong relationships between the junior and senior school students.
Marist has an extensive outdoor education program, culminating in the Outward Bound experience undertaken in Year Ten. We are also highly involved in team sports such as cricket, basketball, rugby union, football, Australian Football and hockey as well as cross country, athletics, swimming, snow sports and judo.
There is a selection of indoor clubs that include table tennis, debating, computing club, science club, writers’ club, and creative and performing arts are central to our formal and informal curriculum. The range of courses, which students may take in the various years, is extensive and details can be found elswere on this site.
