Patrician Brothers Catholic College Blacktown dedicated teacher and student

Our school is committed to creating a learning community where:

Each person is challenged to grow in a Catholic environment.

We recognise that such growth is a life-long process involving the individual’s spiritual, emotional, moral, intellectual, social, interpersonal and physical development.

We all demonstrate the Gospel values of faith, justice, tolerance, hope, honesty, service, trust, forgiveness and respect.

We value and demonstrate the Patrician ideal of friendliness and love of all creation, especially the poor.

Our College Crest

The college crest consists of a shield surmounted by a crown and our motto, Christus Regnat, Latin for "Christ Reigns". The shield represents the Catholic Faith, while the white star encircled by the wreath of laurel represents The Blessed Lady. The cross and the crown represent 'The Crowning Gift of Faith'.

Our History

For more than 70 years, Patrician Brothers' College has worked to build a community of young men of incredible generosity, resilience and faith.

Patrician Brothers’ College was founded in 1952 by the Patrician Brothers to serve the mainly rural families of Blacktown and surrounding districts. The College is set on seven hectares in the heart of Blacktown City. Located just ten minutes walk from the Blacktown interchange, the College is easily accessible by public transport.

Like our city we have continued to grow and respond to the needs of our community, but our culture has remained Catholic and focused on boys’ education. Since the year 2000 the College has seen the introduction of a range of new facilities including: the Jubilee Hall, gymnasium, amphitheatre, hospitality kitchen, drama space, student café and TAS facilities.

The College today is a modern, technologically advanced learning environment that is equipped to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
