Rosebank College in Sydney’s inner west is a strong representation of inclusive Catholic co-education, where boys and girls learn and grow together. Under Principal Iris Nastasi’s leadership, students learn the value of gender equity, diverse perspectives and respectful dialogue—skills that are vital not only in school, but in life. Rosebank alumni are well-prepared to lead with empathy and integrity, contributing to a more equitable and inclusive society.
As Ms Nastasi states, “Co-education prepares students for a world where collaboration across genders is essential.” Whether in the classroom, on the sports field, or through co-curricular activities, Rosebank provides students with the tools they need to thrive once they graduate.
Central to Rosebank College’s ethos are Benedictine values, which focus on hospitality, community and love of neighbour. These values shape an environment where all students feel welcomed and supported, regardless of gender, background or ability.
Rosebank’s inclusivity is also reflected in its commitment to diversity, which is woven into their mission. The College offers a range of scholarships and bursaries to ensure students from different walks of life have access to its educational opportunities. Rosebank recognises that every student’s journey is unique, and through academic, artistic and sporting pathways, students are given the chance to succeed.
