Good Samaritan commitment to
Education
The
Sisters of the Good Samaritan were founded in 1857
and within a few years they had established a school
in Sussex Street in the heart of Sydney.
Then, as now, the Sisters worked in collaboration
with women and men, providing for the educational
needs of young students.
From the beginning, interactive networks grew up
between the local community, the Church and the
school.
Schools were opened up, first in New South Wales
and then in other parts of Australia. Today there
are ten incorporated Good Samaritan Colleges located
along the eastern states of Australia and one on
the island of Kyushu in Japan.
Each of the following schools has been incorporated
into a Company limited by guarantee, each with its
own legal entity and governed by a Board of Directors
responsible to the Members of the Company under
the direction of the Sisters of the Good Samaritan.
The Sisters of the Good Samaritan have retained
the ownership of these eleven colleges and value
these schools as a sphere of their apostolic activity
within the mission of the Church.
