Mary (IBVM), Loreto College Coorparoo is an independent Catholic<br />
secondary school for girls. The College is one of more than 150 Loreto<br />
schools throughout the world. Founder Mary Ward, made the prophetic<br />
statement, “women in time to come will do much.” This is integral to the<br />
Loreto philosophy whereby the aim is to liberate, motivate and empower<br />
girls. Mary Ward’s compelling story encourages students to have self-belief<br />
as women, engenders hope and courage and promotes their capacity to<br />
make a difference for good in the world.<br />
The academic curriculum at the College encourages each student to<br />
discover her potential in an atmosphere where excellence is valued, a love<br />
of learning is nurtured and there is a strong emphasis on critical thinking<br />
and student engagement.<br />
From Years 7 to 9, students are provided with a balanced curriculum that<br />
caters for the core areas of learning as well as providing electives that allow<br />
them to explore areas of interest.<br />
In Years 10 to 12, there continues to be a rich and engaging range of<br />
subjects which provides students with a course of study that is flexible,<br />
engaging and designed to suit the needs and ambitions of the students<br />
beyond Year 12.<br />
As experts in girls’ education, staff at Loreto Coorparoo incorporate the ethos<br />
of a 400 year old tradition with innovative pedagogies and technologies for<br />
the 21st century learner in order to support girls toward personal excellence.<br />
