Downlands College is owned and conducted by the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MSC), alongside a committed group of teachers and support staff. The College was opened in 1931 as a boarding school for boys with a total enrolment of 68. Today, it is fully co-educational, with more than 1200 day and boarding students from all parts of Queensland and beyond.Downlands recognises that it is in the family that young people gain their basic values and ideals about life. As such, the College is a vital, diverse community within which each individual student is accepted, challenged and assisted to fully develop the goodness of their own gifts and aspirations. Enriched by the contributions of all and respecting each individual’s rights and qualities, the College stresses that all must share the life and ideals of the Downlands community. The growth of both community and individuals is enhanced by openness, empathy, perseverance, a sense of responsibility, friendliness and humour. Downlands provides opportunities to students and staff for individual and group religious experiences, in the Catholic tradition. The MSC spirituality of the Heart that has been handed on to us by the MSC Priests and Brothers who were Downlands early staff, permeates College life and sets the standard in all we do.
