Mount St Marys College and Convent, Heritage educational complex in Katoomba, Blue Mountains, Australia.

Mount St Marys College and Convent features three floors of rendered brick construction with a painted corrugated iron roof and decorative stucco details.

The Sisters of Charity established the institution in 1901, with Cardinal Moran laying the foundation stone for the new building in April 1909.

The Federation Free Classical architectural style of the building represents early 20th-century educational and religious developments in New South Wales.

The former school and convent, located at 10-14 Civic Place, maintains its position as a registered heritage site open for scheduled visits.

A commemorative grotto constructed in 1926 marks the silver jubilee of the convent and stands as a testament to its educational legacy.
