.St Patrick's College is an independent Roman Catholic co-educational secondary day school, located in Sutherland, Southern Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The college provides a general and religious education for students from Year 7 to Year 12.
The school traces its founding to Christian Brothers College, established as an upper primary school in 1956 by the Congregation of Christian Brothers.[1] In 1992, it merged with Mary Immaculate College, which had been founded in 1959 by the Presentation Sisters of Wagga Wagga.[2] The school takes its name from St. Patrick's School, a primary parochial school, which had been founded in 1924 by the Sisters of Mercy of Cronulla, and of which Mary Immaculate College had been established as a secondary department.[3]
St Patrick's College is connected to St Patrick's Catholic Parish Sutherland and St Patrick's Primary School.
