Saint Ignatius' College, Adelaide

Saint Ignatius' College is an independent Catholic pre-school, primary and secondary day school for boys and girls, located in Adelaide, South Australia.

[2] The College began in Queen Street, Norwood, commencing with fifty-two boys and six Jesuit fathers on 13 February 1951.

The catalyst was Archbishop Matthew Beovich's[3] increasing interest in commencing more formalised Catholic schooling in Adelaide.

From 1971, the school accepted Kildare College enrolments from girls wanting to complete their secondary studies.

A significant celebration and event in the college community is the annual Patronal Feast Day of Saint Ignatius.

A new theatre was unveiled, named after St Peter Faber SJ, one of the founding fathers of the Society of Jesus.

The new building houses student classrooms, tutorial and storage rooms, and an auditorium with raked audience seating for over 300 people.

The building is three stories tall with the ground floor being for a reception, student services and a variety of offices for different staff at the school.

This learning space includes a green screen for the school run YouTube channel ITV (Formerly known as the "Home Group"), a 'building' workshop as well as a number of interactive classrooms which teachers can book and arrange in the layout they want for their class.

Redemption was complete in 2019 when the boys First XVIII Football team won their respected shield for the first time in six years.
