Brisbane Catholic Education, Educational organization in Brisbane, Australia.
Brisbane Catholic Education is an organization managing schools throughout Queensland that serve about one in five students in the state. The main office in Woolloongabba oversees both primary and secondary institutions offering education grounded in Catholic principles.
Catholic education in Queensland began in 1845 when the first Catholic school opened in Brisbane. From that starting point, the network expanded to become a major educational system across the entire region.
The organization brings Indigenous perspectives into classrooms through the Ngutana-Lui Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Studies Centre. Students engage with the knowledge and history of the traditional owners of the land.
The schools serve students from early childhood through secondary level across multiple locations. Visitors interested in the education programs can contact the headquarters in Woolloongabba to learn about facilities and opportunities.
The network operates 29 Catholic kindergartens providing specialized early learning programs for nearly 1000 children. These facilities offer foundational education that shapes the school journey for young learners across the state.
