The school was established in 1957 by the Brigidine Sisters[1] and since 2014 now works under the governance of the Kildare Ministries.[2][3] Marian College is one of seven Kildare Ministries secondary schools in Victoria and South Australia and continues to hold the Brigidine Tradition as a valuable and significant part of its heritage.

Marian College seeks to provide young women with the opportunity to be educated within a school environment that allows and encourages each person to develop fully as an individual, and as a community member. In 2023 there were 832 girls enrolled at the school.[1]
