A Catholic day and boarding school in the Jesuit tradition for boys in Years 5-12, we support each student to develop their unique gifts through a holistic and pastoral approach.
Our students are encouraged to embrace scholarship as a response to God's gift of intellect and to use their talents to make a positive difference in the world.
Faith is central to Jesuit education, and students are challenged to become fully who they were created to be—to think deeply, act with integrity and serve others.
The pastoral care program is underpinned by the Jesuit principle of cura personalis—'care for the whole person'. Each student is known and supported by their House leaders and mentors.
Our extensive Co-Curriculum Program opens doors for students to discover new interests, develop their skills, and strengthen their character through grit, teamwork, and grace.
The boarding community comprises a special mix of students from across Australia and abroad. Boarders enjoy a unique camaraderie and are supported with a balance of academic routines and fun recreational activities.
Riverview enjoys a strong, inclusive community grounded in a shared commitment to one another and to our Ignatian identity.
Choosing the right school for your family is an important decision. We warmly invite your interest in Saint Ignatius' College Riverview.
Last Friday, around 90 Years 12 fathers headed up the coast for our third and final Dads' Weekend.
The weekend began for some on Friday afternoon with a round of golf at Merewether Golf Club before a larger contingent gathered for dinner and drinks at the Commonwealth Hotel. Saturday morning saw some heading to the beach for a surf, walk or run, while others enjoyed some of Newcastle's many cafes.
