Whitefriars Catholic College

Adelaide Schools introduces Whitefriars Catholic College in Donvale, for all your education and learning needs.

Whitefriars College is a Catholic Boys’ Secondary College conducted by the Carmelite Order. The College motto, "Almae in Fide Parentis" (In the Care of a Loving Mother) conveys something of the Order’s spirit and the way in which it endeavours to reach out to the students in its care.

Through our mission as a Catholic College, Whitefriars seeks to enable students to understand the principles and values of the Catholic faith and to experience these principles and values in a caring community to which they feel they belong. The staff at Whitefriars believes these ideals can only be realised in relation to students if they are also aimed for in the students’ homes.

The College staff relies heavily on the support of parents in the education of the boys entrusted to their care. We believe that a co-operative relationship between home and school provides the foundation for effectively pursuing the College's aims and ideals.

The major intake for students occurs at the Year 7 level, but students are welcome at other Year levels if vacancies exist.
