PRIN CIPAL \ TINA APOSTOLOPOULOS
Established by the Sisters of Our Lady of Sion in 1928, the College has a proud history of providing excellent education to young women, promoting service to others and maintaining a culture of respect and inclusion. Our values of compassion, justice, reconciliation, peace and love underpin every decision on how we educate the students in our care.
At Our Lady of Sion, we celebrate diversity, knowing that each student brings her own set of gifts, from high academic aspirations, to a strong desire for social justice, to talents in music, science or the arts. Together, our staff and students form a partnership of learning and discovery, igniting passion, excitement and innovation. Classes at Sion extend the imagination and inspire our students to explore the endless possibilities that life presents to them.
Our holistic curricular and co-curricular programs support students to engage with global concerns and equip them with Catholic values, understanding and relevant skills. Students maintain a global perspective through formation and social justice opportunities that call them to dialogue with other faiths and to serve the needs of others. We are proud to offer students the opportunity to join a community built on respect for individual needs, and which supports them to truly flourish.

LEGACY COMMUNITY

Embracing the values of inclusivity, welcome and service, traditions embodied by the Sisters of Our Lady of Sion, students are compelled to build a better world for themselves and others. At the heart of our College is community. Through the personal relationships we foster, each student is named and known, valued and nurtured, encouraged and supported, allowing her to experience growth and achieve her personal best.
