Dear Parents and Carers,
Good Counsel College is a Catholic co-educational secondary school that offers a quality and holistic educational experience for students in years 7-12. It operates under the auspices of the Catholic Diocese of Cairns and enjoys collaborative partnerships with Catholic Primary schools in Tully, South Johnstone, Silkwood, Innisfail and Babinda whilst also welcoming students from state and other schools who are seeking a Catholic education for their children and who share our values.
The College strives to provide a quality education for the whole person in a safe and nurturing environment where students can grow, emotionally, spiritually, academically and physically. We encourage all members of our community to become independent, life-long and life-wide learners, to be hope filled, with the desire, knowledge and skills to make the world a better place.
Together, we have a vision of being courageous, encountering possibilities and engaging in dialogue to achieve excellence in all that we do, while continuing to support student outcomes and achievements.
If you desire a quality education for your child, I encourage you to consider Good Counsel College and to contact us to arrange a personal tour.
I am excited to have become a part of the journey of this great college. May we always remain hope-filled, with a desire to transform the world and may God accompany us along the way.
Cathy Barrett
Principal
