At Mt Maria College, we are dedicated to unlocking each student's potential and inspiring their future success. Our welcoming community fosters growth and learning, while our curriculum and VET pathways are designed to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed for success in the real-world. Through authentic relationships and a supportive atmosphere, we guide each student on their chosen path, preparing them to excel in life beyond school.

Mt Maria College Petrie is a Catholic Archdiocesan Co-educational Secondary College. It is located next to Our Lady of the Way school and Our Lady of the Way Church. The College was established by Brisbane Catholic Education in 1987 and was originally named “Kolbe College” after Saint Maximilian Kolbe. 

Central to our existence is the genuine concern for each student’s academic, spiritual and personal development. Promoting our Catholic faith, personal formation and building confidence and self-esteem are paramount within our College community. There is a strong sense of family atmosphere and a great support for our College Mission.

Nestled on four hectares of gardens and bushland, Mt Maria College Petrie offers a dynamic and responsive curriculum to meet the educational needs of all students.

As a Catholic College, Mt Maria College Petrie aims to educate young people by fostering an atmosphere of acceptance and celebration of diversity.

Students are encouraged, through a supportive Christian community, to do their best in whatever they undertake.

Hello and welcome to Mt Maria College Petrie.  M?y name is Kerry Maher and I am Principal of this wonderful college.


 I have been a member of the Senior Leadership Team at Mt Maria College Petrie for the past 8 years and in the role of Deputy Principal since 2019. 

Prior to joining the college, I spent three years as an Education Officer – School to Post-School Transitions, with Brisbane Catholic Education. Here I worked in partnership with Griffith University to build the knowledge and understanding of leaderships teams in our Catholic secondary schools (North Region) in 'best transition practices' informed by inclusive education.

 I am deeply invested in ensuring that every student is given the opportunity to achieve their potential and in promoting student wellbeing.

Maintaining high expectations for our learners and teacher practice and embedding our Marist values in all that we do are my key priorities. In this way we can continue to nurture and inspire our students to go out and make a difference in the world in the knowledge they have the skills and dispositions to do so. 

I strongly believe that parent engagement is essential to successful student learning and wellbeing outcomes and that this can be achieved when parents and teachers share open and respectful communication to achieve the shared goal of maximising learning and wellbeing outcomes.  

I want you to know that I lead a team of committed educators who are dedicated to the mission of learning and teaching forever mindful of, and responsive to, the needs of their learners.

You are invited to come and meet me, see our beautiful campus, and meet our teachers and students.  

Please get in touch anytime, I'd love to show you around and look forward to meeting you personally.

Regards,?

?Kerry Maher?
