<strong>20</strong>22 edition<br />

This year is a particularly exciting<br />

year as it will be our last full year at<br />

our Barbadoes Street site as the final<br />

countdown to our new school on<br />

Lydia Street in Papanui begins. We<br />

are especially blessed to have an<br />

incredible support network within the<br />

Marian College school community, the<br />

Catholic Diocese, Armitage Williams and<br />

everyone involved. There will be some<br />

incredible opportunities for our students<br />

to have a hands-on learning experience<br />

through the build and we are excited to<br />

bring the Marian community- both past<br />

and present- on this journey with us.<br />

To our Year 9 students and whānau,<br />

welcome to the family. We look forward<br />

to meeting you soon. We hope your<br />

time at Marian College will be filled with<br />

faith, fun, learning, and inspiration as<br />

we journey through the next five years<br />

together.<br />

Villa Maria College is a state<br />

integrated Catholic secondary<br />

school for girls in Years 7 to 13. The<br />

College was opened by the Sisters<br />

of Mercy in 1918 and has grown to<br />

accommodate 800 students within<br />

its beautiful grounds. The spirit<br />

of Mercy is the very heart of our<br />

College, and there is an emphasis<br />

on service to others and the<br />

community. Girls are educated in<br />

Catholic teachings, and this Catholic<br />

character is evident throughout the<br />

College.<br />

Our Mission is to: “Empower each<br />

young woman to determine her<br />

potential, live Gospel values,<br />

confidently embrace life-long<br />

learning and as a Mercy woman be<br />

inspired to make a difference”.<br />

The education Villa Maria College<br />

offers is of the highest quality,<br />

and we are proud of our excellent<br />

academic results. Our strong<br />

academic programme is combined<br />

with varied co-curricular activities,<br />

encompassing sport, cultural and<br />

musical programmes.<br />

Our pastoral care systems ensure<br />

that all girls are supported<br />

throughout their schooling. Villa<br />

Maria College is an environment that<br />

is compassionate and engaging, and<br />

allows our girls to participate fully in<br />

all aspects of College life.<br />

We invite you to visit the Villa Maria<br />

College website and experience<br />
