We would love to hear from you.  St John Bosco College is an outstanding Roman Catholic, Salesian school, a Christian community based on gospel values, with an approach shaped by the life and example of St John Bosco. We welcome applications from all members of the community and we place a strong emphasis on respecting diversity and celebrating the dignity of each and every person. 

Our Open Evening for the 2026 intake will be taking place on Tuesday 16 September 2025, from 4.30-6.30pm.  This is a great opportunity for prospective parents and their children to see the school and meet key members of staff.
