Xavier College is justifiably proud of the opportunities that lie ahead of us as we reimagine inspiring new learning spaces for our students.
As a school that enrols boys, Xavier is committed from the commencement of a boys education to developing respectful and aspirant learners.
Our distinctive Jesuit character underscores these learning and life values, whereby our future graduates are formed with an intentional mindset to be authentic, spiritual, positive, inspiring, resilient and empathetic.
These ASPIRE qualities are infused through each age and stage, where our educators deliver a holistic curriculum designed to encourage students to be curious, ask questions, make discoveries, collaborate, reflect and think independently.
Extending upon our co-educational Kindergarten for 3- and 4-year-olds, Xavier is moving to a 2-year staged model of educational delivery from Prep to Year 12. This will coincide with a comprehensive building program to enhance every aspect of each campus.
Our key entry point of Year 7 will be accommodated in an exceptional, new state-of-the-art Year 7-8 learning precinct on the Senior Campus, opening for the start of 2024.
As we welcome the new enrolments of year sevens and eights onto the Senior Campus, we are highly driven to ensure these new and reimagined facilities enable the continued fostering of the human connections and relationships that have made Xavier the much-loved College that it has become
throughout many generations.
The building plan connects the centre of the College with a safe, generous and accessible walk along the northern edge of the campus, creating a gentle backdrop to the College’s Memorial Chapel, which remains at the heart of the school for students, staff and visitors alike.
A new boarding house is to be established at the western edge of the campus, neighbouring a reimagined Sports Centre, and a brand-new underground Transport Hub will provide a newfound ease and safety in supporting car-parking and student drop-off.
The perimeter of the campus will be reimagined as a mile long biodiversity walking and running track, which has quickly become known as the “Xavier Tan”.
As well as encouraging physical health and opportunities for informal exercise, the Tan will support mental wellbeing, offering spaces for reflection, mindfulness, and prayer along its length.
The inclusion of Years 7 and 8 on the Senior Campus, accommodated in these new and exceptional facilities, will produce a further and quite profound uplift through the entire Xavier experience.
We welcome you and your son as we continue to build the possible.
