O'Loughlin Catholic College - Karama

Years 7 to 12 Co-Educational

O'Loughlin Catholic College, named after Bishop John O'Loughlin, is a welcoming co-educational community that integrates religion, learning, and belonging. Serving nearly 600 students, it is guided by the motto “Make us one with Christ,” where Years 7–12 students enjoy variety and ground every experience in Gospel values—nurturing resilient young hearts to lead with hope, compassion, and purpose. O'Loughlin balances academic rigour with spiritual depth, helping students thrive in a caring atmosphere that feels like family from day one.

Adjacent to Holy Family Catholic Primary School, the College facilitates seamless transitions for families seeking continuity—from primary foundations to secondary schooling—through orientation camps, buddy systems, and shared events. Co-curricular activities abound, including sports on lush ovals, engaging music groups, outdoor adventures, and leadership roles in student governments and prefect teams.

O'Loughlin provides a faith-integrated curriculum aligned with the Australian Curriculum, SACE, and VET, fostering intellectual, ethical, and spiritual growth. In Years 7–9, core subjects like Religious Education, Mathematics, Humanities, Science, and Health/Physical Education build foundational skills in a supportive environment, with electives sparking curiosity. Years 10–12 blend SACE Stages 1 and 2 for ATAR or non-ATAR pathways, including VET from Year 9 for practical certifications, while core Religious Education weaves Gospel values to inspire justice. Tailored assessments and support ensure personalised success, preparing compassionate leaders for university, work, or beyond.
