Welcome

PCW prides itself on 138 years of sustained commitment to compassion, inclusion, social justice and education for all. The College reflects the contemporary Australia this generation of young women will lead. PCW is a Catholic secondary school for girls established in 1873 by seven Presentation Sisters - an Irish congregation founded by Nano Nagle. The College has inherited from the Presentation Sisters a tradition of adventure, creating an openness to teaching and learning that infuses the school. Providing six years of education, PCW educates girls for life. Our forward looking education creates pathways beyond school, enriches growth and transforms lives.
