Welcome to Heathmont College

Heathmont College, tucked away at the corner of Waters Grove and Marlborough Road in a safe and secluded part of Heathmont, is the ideal setting for a college that means to deliver excellence in all facets of the education it provides to the students entrusted to it. While our College is committed to a strongly academic focus, the added bonus of having excellent technology facilities means that we can offer a broad range of opportunities to our students.

Education today is the combination of a broad and engaging curriculum, dedicated staff and excellent facilities to deliver that curriculum - all enriched and supported by the right programs to ensure that the students fully benefit and develop.

Established as a dual campus college in 1993, Heathmont is now progressively establishing itself on a single campus with new and improved facilities for science, technology, sports gymnasium, administration and a new VCE centre, together with development of its beautiful garden setting. The considerable improvements to our facilities are making our College a superb environment for both living and learning.

We consider that striving for excellence in learning is the cornerstone of each student’s goals and it is our mission to develop confident and responsible citizens who will continue to rise to that challenge of learning throughout their lives. However, balancing intellectual achievement with personal, emotional and social development is vital and we recognise the need to foster a strong sense of self-worth, self-confidence and the capacity for building fulfilling relationships with others.

In respecting the trust that parents place in us to share in the responsibility of educating their children, we strive to maintain a collaborative approach to the education process and a strong and regular communication with parents.

Through important initiatives such as Learning Circles, Traineeships etc, we strive to get to know our students individually, empower them to develop and learn so as to prepare them for a range of career pathways - and for life itself.

Yes, it’s exciting. There is a quiet revolution taking place at Heathmont College and we warmly invite you to come and be a part of it.
