St Columban’s College is a co-educational, non-selective, Catholic, independent day secondary school, serving students aged 12-18. Located in Caboolture, Queensland, the school has approximately 1,025 enrolled students.
St Columban’s College was established in 1928 as an all-boys school in Albion, Queensland. The school was managed by the Christian Brothers until 1985 when it was formally handed over to the Brisbane Catholic Education Office. After this event, the all-through school phased out its primary school to focus on secondary education. In 1997, the college was relocated to Caboolture and commenced co-education. St Columban’s College is an Archdiocesan School within the Archdiocese of Brisbane.
