Principal's Welcome

As Principal of Stella Maris I welcome all who visit our web site. Stella Maris College , an independent Catholic Girls' School was founded by the Good Samaritan Sisters in the Benedictine tradition. Located in Manly, on Sydney's Northern Beaches, Stella Maris, has an established reputation for an innovative, flexible and diverse curriculum.

At Stella Maris we pride ourselves on the care and development of young women, who through living the Benedictine values will contribute to making a significant and positive difference to our world. All that we do is based on our values: compassion, justice, learning, harmony, balance, hospitality and wise stewardship.

We seek to create a community where compassion and justice are at the heart of everything we do; where learning is ongoing and valued; where we work with 21^st century technology yet challenge 21^st century values; where individuals are able to develop a balance in their lives; an environment welcoming to all; and a place where care for the earth provides a sustainable aspect of our existence.
