Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox College

Welcome to Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox College, a premier educational institution located at Wattle Grove, Australis Avenue, 52 in Australia. As an establishment, point of interest, primary school, school, and university all rolled into one, we offer a comprehensive and enriching learning experience for students of all ages.

At Saint Mark's College, we pride ourselves on fostering a great sense of unity and love within our community. Our dedicated staff members go above and beyond to ensure that every student is well cared for, creating a nurturing environment that is conducive to learning and personal growth. We believe that a strong support system is essential for academic success, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to provide this for our students.

Our college, operating within the Association of Independent Schools (NSW), was established in 1996 at a rented premises in Lidcombe before relocating to our current site in Wattle Grove in 1999. We hold our Coptic Orthodox heritage with pride, and it serves as the cornerstone of our College community. In addition to the Coptic people of Sydney, we are attracting increased interest from members of the local community who appreciate the strong Christian ethos that underpins our institution.

One of the defining characteristics of Saint Mark's College is the strong family feel that permeates throughout. The wider Coptic Community, the Coptic Church, parents, students, and staff all contribute to the warm and welcoming atmosphere that greets every individual who walks through our doors. We believe that education is a collaborative effort, and this belief extends to the involvement of our entire community.

While academic excellence is a top priority, we also emphasize the importance of holistic development. Participation in music, sports, and other co-curricular activities is strongly promoted within our college. We believe that by engaging in these activities, our students become well-rounded individuals who can positively contribute to Australian society.

Furthermore, our college curriculum includes camps, which provide students with important experiential learning opportunities. These camps not only enhance academic knowledge but also foster personal growth, resilience, and teamwork skills.

At Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox College, we are committed to providing a high-quality education that prepares our students for a successful and fulfilling future. We invite you to join our vibrant community and be a part of the Saint Mark's experience.
