Academic Focus

As part of the Catholic Schools Broken Bay (CSBB) system of 45 schools, Siena Catholic College will deliver education grounded in authenticity, excellence and compassion. The strong foundations of learning at Sacred Heart, Pymble and OLPS, West Pymble, coupled with the proven track record of CSBB secondary schools in delivering outstanding academic outcomes for all students, will support student learning in the secondary years. Following the New South Wales Education Standards Authority (NESA) accredited curriculum, students will study a broad range of subjects leading to the HSC credential. This offering, as well as alternative opportunities for students seeking to pursue vocational pathways, will be delivered with rigour and high expectations. Siena Catholic College will support every student to achieve their very best.

Faith

Our mission is at the heart of everything we do. Through our focus on mission and access to opportunities to explore and deepen their faith, we will partner with families to form young people who will witness the love of God and shape the world with courage, compassion and stewardship.

Wellbeing

Students engage well in their learning and flourish in every way when they have a sense of positive wellbeing.

We will work closely with families to support each child’s social, emotional, academic, and faith development.
