Greenvale’s Kolbe Catholic College is set to expand.

The school will open a new years 7-12 campus in Mickleham in 2026, subject to approval from the Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority.

The new campus will be located on an eight-hectare site within The Woods estate, on Donnybrook Road, Merrifield West.

Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) acting executive director Edward Simons said the announcement of the new campus was exciting for the school and community.

“With Kolbe Catholic College, Greenvale Lakes, expected to reach capacity in the near future, this new campus will provide additional opportunities for a Catholic secondary education for families in the parish of Craigieburn, where there are five Catholic primary schools,” Dr Simons said.

“This new campus will extend and build on this legacy, offering a high-quality, affordable, faith-based educational option for more families in the northern suburbs of Melbourne.”

Principal Nick Scully said the project team would work closely with families, the parish and local communities to ensure the hopes and aspirations of the community are recognised and incorporated into the design and function of the new campus.

“Through the delivery of outstanding facilities, we will provide students at the new campus with every opportunity to make the most of what life has to offer, to strive to be their very best and be inspired to serve others, in keeping with our college’s vision’, he said.
