St John’s Regional College is a large Catholic co-educational secondary school situated in Dandenong in the South Eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Over 1100 students are enrolled at St John’s, and it prides itself on the community partnerships established through its
feeder parishes around the Dandenong region.

The College was originally established in 1958, and today continues to educate within the charism and spirit of the Presentation Sisters and De La Salle Brothers.

Students at St John’s have outstanding opportunities for learning, well-being and extra curricular activities, including, an active Religious Education Program, a Vertical House system, which includes a rich pastoral program within the context of our Catholic tradition, student access to full VCE and VCAL programs, in addition to options including VET, TAFE and/or Apprenticeships, which caters for a range of
vocational and career pathways, well resourced facilities including recent upgrades to computers and computer access, Hospitality kitchen in the award winning, student-run ‘Graduates Restaurant’, Lecture Theatre and construction of a new Language Centre, Secondary Transition Education Program to ensure a smooth transition into secondary school from primary school, internal and interschool sporting programs and a creative and vibrant Performing Arts program, with outstanding
school productions.

A good education is so much more than just academic achievement. We take this important distinction seriously. Within our ‘walls’ we work with parents, our students and the community to provide the most suitable and educational path for each person. This also means meeting the physical, emotional and spiritual needs that will lead eventually to the well balanced and well rounded young men and women who walk out of our gates and into the world outside.
