Welcome to our College website. Message from the Principal

Welcome to St Laurence College- a school in the Marianist Tradition.

Our College is a Catholic Voluntary Secondary School, which has been co-educational since 1973.

From the school’s earliest days, teachers and staff at St. Laurence College have worked to create and maintain a caring family atmosphere at our College. We endeavour to ensure that our students are supported and encouraged to aspire, realise and achieve their fullest potential in the most holistic sense- attaining the highest academic standards possible and preparing our students for life beyond secondary school: contributing to the world they engage in with particular emphasis on Service and Peace.

At St. Laurence’s, we foster and promote an ethos of belonging, inclusivity and mutuality of respect- inspired through the Gospel values of Faith, Hope and Love.

The Characteristics of Marianist Education ( CME’S) further imbue and permeate our College Ethos, giving it a ‘uniqueness’ that is tangible and living- something that is remarked almost immediately by visitors who come to our College!

Through our CME’s, we strive to:

       * Educate for formation in faith
       * Provide an integral, quality education
       * Educate in family spirit
       * Educate for service, justice, and peace
       * Educate for adaptation and change.

Furthermore, our College motto: ‘Out of darkness toward truth and Imagination’, encapsulates our belief that all education involves a basic search for truth and integrity- a journey willingly embarked upon by teacher and student together.

I hope that you enjoy our College website and should you have any questions/ queries that require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at the College on (01) 2826930 or by email at principal@stlaurencecollege.com.
