About Our School

Holy Cross College seeks to offer a quality Catholic education that maximises the potential of every boy in our care.

The college was founded in 1891 by the Patrician Brothers'. The charism of the Patrician Brothers is marked by a commitment to 'seeing the face of Christ in all we meet' in our daily lives. The college remains committed to this Patrician ideal. It translates into a school life that:

• welcomes all, seeking to build a community of hospitality and inclusion
• expects high standards in academic work and student behaviour
• challenges all in the school community to develop a real spirit of justice that makes a difference to the way we live our lives
• celebrates and sanctifies life and everything in school life that is life-giving.

With expansive grounds, heritage buildings and an unenviable academic and sporting tradition, Holy Cross continues to serve the Sydney Catholic community as an outstanding day school for boys 7 -12.
