Christian Brothers' College was established in 1878 and has a rich history as an Edmund Rice school. We are fortunate to have so many outstanding traditions which give depth to our students' many experiences. Schools today need to respond to a variety of social needs.

At CBC we are proud to offer students and their families a diverse range of programs that are responsive to each person. We aim to provide learning that challenges, imparts values, encourages innovation and teaches self-discipline. One of our strengths as a relatively small school of 650 students, is that we are able to form a strong spirit of community and belonging where students and teachers work in an atmosphere of mutual support.

CBC's broad curriculum enables students to access a variety of pathways to enhance each boy's opportunities in life. In particular, our special partnership with Presentation College Windsor enables us to offer comprehensive subject choices for VCE students and the opportunity for our young men to work with young women in their senior studies.

As Christian educators of boys we:

support families in the spiritual guidance and moral development of their sons

provide a safe and emotionally supportive school environment

are leaders in the education of boys

offer learning experiences that respond to the circumstances of contemporary life

recognise that successful schools develop effective partnerships with families and carers.

Our beautifully resourced facilities offer our students many advantages beyond the reach of other schools.

At the heart of Christian Brothers' College St. Kilda is a nurturing, dynamic learning community keen to develop boys as they become decent men. "Have courage, the good seed will grow up in the children's hearts later..."- Edmund Rice, Founder of Christian Brothers' Schools.
