St Anthony’s Catholic College is one of Townsville’s best schools offering Kindergarten to Year 12 Catholic education, located in the rapidly growing Deeragun and northern beaches precinct with its motto being “Let Your Light Shine”. It is a Townsville Catholic school in the Franciscan tradition and our community continues to be animated by the spirit of St Francis of Assisi.
The College comprises state-of-the-art facilities situated in a peaceful bushland setting with extensive grounds and is well-resourced to support a committed and professional teaching staff in the provision of quality Catholic education for students in the northern beaches.
St Anthony’s strives to foster close relationships with parents and enjoys a positive partnership with St Anthony’s Catholic Parish, which comes under the stewardship of the Franciscan Friars.
Many schools set out to provide their students with a full rounded education including physical, academic, spiritual, emotional and social elements. St Anthony’s is extremely good at this. We come from the rich Catholic, Franciscan faith that highly values every living creature. We are a welcoming community embracing all the wonders of learning. Our College Motto is “Let Your Light Shine”. As children of God we are called to let our light shine. This means we want all of our community to SHINE. We all have talents and it is our God given right to develop these to the best of our abilities. This is what St Anthony’s Catholic College endeavours to do. It is a shared approach with the parents and carers being both valued and necessary in the process if our children are to reach their true potential.
