Daramalan crestFifty years ago Daramalan College was founded by the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MSC) based on the Heart spirituality of the MSC.

Daramalan 2012In 1962 Daramalan started with just 246 students and today has grown to become Canberra’s largest single campus secondary school with over 1480 boys and girls from Years 7 to 12.

Daramalan College offers comprehensive and diverse academic, pastoral, spiritual, vocational, sporting and cultural development to prepare competent and confident young men and women for the world beyond school.

The ethos of the MSC underpins our tradition of achievement and faith at Daramalan and our students flourish in this environment. Religious Education is central in the curriculum at Daramalan and students are expected to actively participate in all aspects of College life.

In this, our 50th Jubilee Year, our students will be celebrating past achievements along with a continued emphasis on meeting the challenges of the future in the dynamic atmosphere of living and learning only Daramalan can offer. The school enables each student to achieve a well-balanced education whilst providing the opportunity to meet individual needs and interests.
