Gilroy Santa Maria College, Ingham

Gilroy Santa Maria College is a Catholic systemic co-educational secondary day school, located in Ingham, Queensland, Australia.

History

The college is the result of a merger of two secondary Catholic schools, Cardinal Gilroy College for boys and Santa Maria College for girls. Both colleges commenced in 1949. Changes in secondary education and the "abolition of the Scholarship year" led to the amalgamation of the two schools in 1973 on the Cardinal Gilroy College site in Chamberlain Street.
