Marist-Sion College has its origins in two Colleges: St Joseph’s College (for boys) founded in 1951 and Our Lady of Sion College (for girls) founded in 1905. Since the amalgamation of the two Colleges in 1975, Marist-Sion has been committed to the ideals of the two founding religious orders proclaiming the Gospel and inviting a response in faith; the pursuit of justice, peace and love in the world and the nurturing of a family spirit which is evident in our openness to others, our warmth and kindness. Situated on one campus of 46 acres, with beautiful views of Mount Baw Baw and the Strzelecki Ranges, the College caters for approximately 1008 students and is accessible by public transport. Today, Marist-Sion provides a quality education in the Catholic tradition for the young people of Warragul and the surrounding districts. A hallmark of the school is the way students, staff and parents work together to promote excellence in learning. The College works hard to enable each student to recognise their strengths so they can value learning for life and flourish as people. All staff work to ensure everyone in our community is known, valued and safe. Marist-Sion College is a child safe employer and is committed to the welfare of children and their protection.
