Designed on a homestead model, Our Year 7-9 Rosebud Campus reflects a harmonious relationship between architecture and the natural environment. The Campus features well-maintained sporting grounds complemented by natural bush and wetland areas, and extensive use of indigenous plantings earning the College multiple awards.
In this nurturing environment, students are known by name and supported to develop their talents, confidence and experience in leadership opportunities before transitioning to the Senior Campus to pursue their interests through Padua College's extensive subject offerings and career pathways.
I am a strong advocate for student voice and agency. I believe that students learn best when they are active participants in their own education; when they are empowered to express their ideas, contribute meaningfully, and take ownership of their learning journey. Creating these opportunities is central to fostering confident, capable, and compassionate young people.
Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions a family can make. We invite you to hear from Rosebud Campus parents about their children’s journeys of learning, confidence and growth at Padua College.
We nurture every student through inclusive culture, pastoral guidance, child centric learning and a comprehensive curriculum
Our child-at-the-centre approach prioritises the individual’s needs, interests, and learning styles and tailors the learning experience to support their personal growth and development.
We will give your child more opportunities and choices to pursue their strengths and interests and develop the individual skills and capabilities to succeed in further education, work, and life.
We are known for the breadth and depth of our learning and wellbeing experiences providing strong academic foundations in literacy, numeracy, science, humanities, arts, sports and languages with VCE, VCE VM, VCE VET, VCE VPC or Hands on Learning senior school study pathway options.
Our inclusive community respects and supports students of all faiths, backgrounds, and identities, fostering a culture of acceptance, belonging, and purpose. By placing students at the centre of the learning experience, we inspire them to discover their passions, develop their talents, and build the skills to thrive in further study, work, and life - empowered to make a meaningful difference for the greater good.
Our learning framework (enable, connect, engage and learn) provides individual emotional, moral, and spiritual care and guidance in line with Catholic values and ethics.
