Our History

Rooted in Faith, Growing in Excellence Since 1989

St Euphemia College was founded in 1989 by the Greek Orthodox Parish and Community of St Euphemia in Bankstown. Guided by a vision to nurture both faith and knowledge within Sydney’s Greek Australian community, our school began as a small Primary School dedicated to preserving Hellenic heritage and Orthodox Christian values.

Today, we have grown into a thriving Prep – Year 12 College, recognised for our holistic education, strong values, and diverse multicultural community.

The establishment of St Euphemia College was driven by the dedication of:

The Greek Orthodox Parish of St Euphemia:

A pillar of Sydney’s Greek Australian community, committed to fostering spiritual growth and cultural pride.

Founding Families:

Local Hellenic families who envisioned a school where their children could thrive academically while staying connected to their faith and heritage.

Early Educators:

Passionate teachers who laid the groundwork for our student-centered, values-driven approach to learning.

From day one, our mission has been clear: to empower students with the wisdom of the past, the skills for the future, and the compassion to serve others.

Our Legacy

For over three decades, St Euphemia College has been a pillar of Sydney’s Greek Orthodox community. We take pride in:

Honouring our heritage through bilingual programs, cultural festivals, and liturgical services that celebrate the Greek language and traditions.

Maintaining strong ties with St Euphemia Parish, ensuring that faith remains at the heart of our identity.

Graduating students who embody our values of integrity, service, and academic excellence, prepared to make meaningful contributions to society.

Looking Ahead

While much has changed since our founding in 1989, our commitment to our core principles remains steadfast. We continue to:

Enhance our curriculum to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed for a rapidly evolving world.

Develop our facilities and programs in alignment with our Orthodox values, ensuring a well-rounded education.

Cultivate a welcoming and inclusive community, where every student is known, valued, and supported.
