Saint Ignatius' College is an independent, Reception to Year 12 school in Adelaide, South Australia.
The College has two campuses, the Junior school (R-Y6) in Norwood and the Senior campus (Y7-Y12) in Athelstone.
Saint Ignatius College is part of the international network of Jesuit schools which begun in Messina, Sicily in 1548.
History
Saint Ignatius College began in Queen Street, Norwood, South Australia in 1951, on the site of the old Marist school. The catalyst was Archbishop Matthew Beovich's[1] increasing interest in commencing more formalised Catholic schooling in Adelaide. Thus the Jesuit boys' day school was established. The initial intake was from Grade 3 onwards. (Students prior to this year level were educated at Loreto College, St Joseph's Memorial School (the local Parish school), or the local state schools.)
In 1967, a secondary campus was opened at Athelstone, in the then outer suburbs of Adelaide, South Australia. From 1972, the school accepted Kildare College enrolments from girls wanting to complete their secondary studies. (At that stage, Kildare offered education up to Year 10). In 1996, the school changed to offer co-educational enrolments from Reception to Year 12, the first Jesuit school in the world to do so.
The school helps out children with disabilities who attend Saint Patrick's Special School which is in Toorak Gardens. The school helped Saint Patrick's Special School procure a bus and some students are part of 'buddy classes' with the students at the special school.
