Aquinas College, Perth

Aquinas College, informally known as Aquinas or AC, is an independent Roman Catholic single-sex primary and secondary day and boarding school for boys, located at Salter Point, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia.

The history of Aquinas begins with Christian Brothers' College, Perth (CBC Perth) which was founded in 1894 on St Georges Terrace in the City of Perth. Aquinas opened in 1938, when the headmaster, boarders and some day students from CBC Perth moved to the new campus at Salter Point. While CBC Perth continued to operate as a day school, Aquinas inherited the College colours of red and black, membership of the Public Schools Association (PSA), as well as the College honour boards, achievements and history for the period 1894–1937.

The campus at Aquinas was built on elevated land which is part of the 69-hectare (171-acre) site at Salter Point. The site includes a large area of bushland on the Mount Henry Peninsula with over two kilometres (one point two miles) of water frontage on the Canning River.

Currently, Aquinas College accepts day students from Kindergarten to Year 12 and boarding students from Years 7 to 12. School fees range from $7,353 for a Kindergarten day student to over $53,514 for a boarding student. The campus includes expansive sporting grounds, and boarding facilities for 210 students.

Aquinas is affiliated with the Public Schools Association, the Association of Independent Schools of Western Australia, the Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia, and the Independent Primary School Heads of Australia.
