De La Salle College, Malvern enters a new chapter
8 August 2022
De La Salle College has today announced it will soon be acquired by Melbourne ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ Catholic Schools (ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ), securing a strong future for the College’s growing community.
The College Board has been working together with its trustees, the De La Salle Brothers, to ensure the College can continue to build on its proud 110-year history of academic excellence. Together, they are pleased this can occur under ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ.
As Australia’s largest non-government education body, ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ was established by Archbishop Peter A Comensoli to govern and operate around 300 of Melbourne’s Catholic schools. As a result, ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ brings considerable expertise and is the natural choice for the College as the Brothers transition from their ownership role.
The acquisition represents business as usual for operations at the College. There will be no changes to staff, leadership, educational approach or Lasallian charism that defines the school. The College Board will take on a new and ongoing advisory role and will be active in ensuring a smooth and minimal transition to the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ network.
This announcement marks an exciting step forward for the College as it continues to thrive, prosper and make a significant contribution to the community in the many years ahead.
More information on Melbourne ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ Catholic Schools is available in the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ section of this website. There you will find our Statement of Mission, information on the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ Board and executive leadership team and our current policies.
