Saint Ignatius' College is an independent Catholic pre-school, primary and secondary day school for boys and girls, located in Adelaide, South Australia. The school is part of the international network of Jesuit schools which began in Messina, Sicily, in 1548.[1] The patron saint of the College is the founder of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), Ignatius of Loyola. The College has two campuses: the Junior Campus in Norwood, containing the Junior School (Reception to Year 6 students) and Early Learning Centre (3 to 5 years old), and the Senior Campus located across some 16 hectares (40 acres) in Athelstone, home to the Senior School (Year 7 to 12 students).[2]
