Before After

College. This is an exciting and stable new era of the college that commenced this year, and we will only get better and stronger from this point on”.

By 2014, the injection of more than $10 million over the previous few years enabled the College to fast-track development plans for the Murdoch Road campus. The College opened a $2.4 million Science Centre, and the Arts and Technology Centre was underway. Over 400 students were enrolled.

A period of rapid growth occurred and by 2018, the College celebrated 15 years and had over 900 students enrolled. The Murdoch Road campus had become a sprawling 14-hectare campus. The College had established itself as the school of choice not only in Wangaratta but had fast become a truly regional educational facility, with close to two-thirds of the student population travelling by bus. In 2023, the College has an enrolment of approximately 1,030 students.

“What our College will look like, feel like in 2028, 2033, and 2040 will be a result of the contributions we all make today,” Mr Jones said.

“We are the custodians of this great school, and our legacy will ensure that Cathedral College continues to thrive, flourish and provide a high-quality education experience for the young people of Wangaratta and the northeast region.”
