who we are

OUR MISSION
To enable our students to develop fully and empower them to make a positive contribution to society.

OUR MOTTO
'For Others' - This encourages students to take time to put others first. 

SCHOOL CREST
The basis of the crest is the Celtic Cross. The cross it the most recognisable symbol of Christianity and its basis is God's unconditional love for us. This Celtic form of the cross reminds us of the Irish origins of our founding Orders.
​The star represents Mary, Star of the Sea, patroness of Stella Maris College. The star was also the central device in the crest of St. Patrick's College. ​

COLLEGE PRAYER

Dear Lord,
We thank you for the land
On which our College stands today,
Built on love and social justice,
Our founders paved the way.

May we follow in the footsteps
Of Nano Nagle and Blessed Edmund Rice,
Let us continue their good work,
And be disciples of Jesus Christ.

​Help us strive to be ‘For Others’,
And encourage us to live
As just and honest people,
Who take less than we give.

Bless the Nagle staff and students,
Let your Spirit be our guide
As we journey through our days
With Jesus by our side.

Venerable Nano Nagle and Blessed Edmund Rice.
Pray for us.
Amen
