Caloundra is where the Sunshine Coast begins! We are located a short 1hr train ride from Brisbane CBD. Experience uncrowded beaches with views of the heritage-listed Glass House Mountains, the sparkling waters of the Pumicestone passage, exquisite cafes and restaurants and a breathtaking coastal headland with hidden coves and sandy beaches.
You can see the ocean from our school and access adjacent natural bushland.
We have a targeted curriculum for each of our junior, middle and senior secondary schools.
Our broad curriculum has options to suit your interests, and we provide direct pathways to employment, training or further education after Year 12.
Our extracurricular activities are extensive exposing our students to a range of experiences tailored to their individual needs.
We value diversity and, through our international student program, all of our students have opportunities to expand their horizons, meet new people and experience everything the beautiful Sunshine Coast has to offer.
