Providing Contemporary Catholic Co-education
Inspired By Christ's Mercy
As Ballarat’s only Catholic co-educational secondary college, Damascus College offers innovative and progressive learning and teaching that inspires and challenges students to be their best and to contribute confidently to the global community.
Our diverse curriculum caters for various post-secondary pathways, providing young people with a solid foundation on which to build their lives, with an education that focuses on the development of the whole person.
We understand that each student has individual learning needs and we aim to provide classroom activities that differentiate their abilities and learning styles. Students are encouraged to participate in all activities available at the College, regardless of their skill level, as we firmly believe that a well-rounded education provides young people with the agency to be their best.
We are fortunate at Damascus College to be able to offer our students a contemporary learning environment only 7km from the Ballarat CBD, with access to innovative technology, flexible and modern classrooms and lots of open spaces and bushland. Students graduate from Damascus College with a strong sense of their own identity and worth, and an appreciation of Christianity in the Catholic tradition.

ANIMAL FARM

Featuring a talented cast from across all year levels and brought to life through inventive theatrical storytelling, striking costuming, puppetry, original music and innovative design, Animal Farm promises to be one of the highlights of the 2026 Performing Arts season.
