About the institution
Founded in 1929 by the Sisters of Mercy and situated in the hills of Lesmurdie, 25 minutes east of Perth, St Brigid’s College prides itself on the delivery of a quality education that caters for students from Pre-Kindergarten to Year 12.
In our expansive and beautiful grounds, students experience a co-educational setting for Pre-Kindergarten to Year 6 and then a girls only education, with boarding facilities, for 7 to 12. The vision of St Brigid’s, led by the legacy of Catherine McAuley and The Sisters of Mercy, is to bring education to young women. This is our continued commitment to provide an education that remains in step with the demands of the 21st century. The College’s ongoing building program ensures students have access to state-of-the-art facilities in the learning environment. The McAuley Wing Science and Technology Centre and the Fitness Centre incorporating an indoor heated swimming pool, are a testament to this.
The grounds and buildings of St Brigid’s College provide the students with a sense of honouring the heritage and history of the College while providing them with open spaces and beautiful surroundings in appreciation of the Mercy tradition.
