Internationally renowned
Situated in leafy foothills just six kilometres from the Adelaide city centre, the Mercedes College Campus has beautiful gardens, open space and great learning facilities.
A contemporary Reception to Year 12 International Baccalaureate (IB) school, Mercedes College is renowned for providing students with a world class education. Offering all three IB programmes, the College promotes the education of the whole person, emphasising intellectual, personal, emotional, spiritual, and social growth through all domains of knowledge.
Mercedes College is a learning community in the Mercy tradition, where a strong sense of belonging is fostered and values are lived as we develop creative, caring and critical thinkers who are responsible, compassionate, loyal, show integrity and mutual respect, and have a strong sense of justice.
Achieving success
Through a progressive, internationally focussed curriculum underpinned by our values, we prepare students as future local, national and global community leaders by providing opportunities that enable each of them to reach their full potential, and become leaders, for life.
Success at Mercedes College is measured by academic achievement, plus each student's abilities, breadth of skills and confidence. The wellbeing of our students is deeply intertwined with our curriculum, facilities, approach to teaching and the connection between students and their teachers.
High performance
In 2024, the College opened a high-performance Arts and Sports Precinct complete with strength and conditioning gymnasium, double indoor sporting courts, and a fit-for-purpose performance space. The sporting complex, Yitpi Centre, is also fitted with retractable seating that allows for the whole College community to meet for special events and celebrations.
