Education Gold Coast introduces St Monica's College in Cairns, for all your education and learning needs.
St Monica`s College, Cairns, is a Catholic Diocesan College of 520 students from Years 8 to 12. The school is situated in the central business district of Cairns, one block from the Cairns Esplanade, and is part of the St Monica`s Cathedral Parish.
The College provides secondary education for girls. It is the only all girls school in the Cairns region. It offers education for day students and, through a partnership with nearby St Augustine`s College, offers also the opportunity for students to board at Chavoin Residence at St Augustine`s College on a full time or weekly basis and attend St Monica`s for all their secondary classes. This initiative began in 2003.
In the twenty first century the staff of St Monica`s embraces the challenge to prepare students for the world in which they will live their adult lives, whilst remaining true to the Gospel values which underpin all Catholic education. Therefore, St Monica`s College is committed to education for girls in the context of a Catholic school which values above all the quality of relationships and the development of the whole person.

St Monica’s will be a college community where relationships reflect the example and teaching of Christ; where true partnership, characterized by mutual trust and respect, will exist between family, school and Church and in so doing we will witness to an authentic lived experience of Catholic Mercy community.
Welcome to St Monica's College one of the popular educators in your Cairns area. Our aim is help you in your learning journey.
We endeavour to celebrate each other’s uniqueness by providing opportunity for all and to develop a culture that identifies that the journey towards excellence is often paved with trial and error, risk taking, learning from mistakes, flexibility and adaptability. We believe that encouraging students to take ownership of the learning is critical in achieving the best learning outcomes and that implicit in this concept is that students learn their own areas of strength and areas of development, through useful and explicit feedback.
