Welcome to The Cathedral School -Townsville's only Anglican school for boys and girls from Early Childhood to Year 12, including boarding students from Year 7 to Year 12.
At Cathedral, we are 'educating for life-long success' . We know that this requires a well-rounded education - to develop the "whole person" by nurturing the body and spirit as well as the mind.
Students are continually challenged and encouraged to take advantage of the exceptional opportunities available at Cathedral. A careful balance of academic, sporting, cultural and spiritual activities produces confident, well-rounded individuals who are prepared for the challenges of life.

Central Queensland Regatta - Rockhampton
Over the weekend, a small team of Cathedral Rowers competed at the Central Queensland Regatta in Rockhampton.
The competition was very strong with schools from Rockhampton, Bundaberg and Gold Coast attending. All team members came home with at least one medal.
For a small group of 20 athletes, they have certainly left their impression on Queensland rowing.
Sam Pickett (Rowing QLD Coach) asked Stephan ‘what do you feed your kids, because it's working'.
Congratulations to the whole team for your hard work and dedication. Read more
Serving Our Community
Each year, as part of their Christian Education program, Year 10 students undertake a week of "Serving Our Community". Father Tim organises placement of more than 100 students into a variety of local organisations including (but not limited to):
• Endeavour Foundation - North Ward • Good Shepherd Nursing Home • Meals on Wheels • Salvation Army • Townsville Community Learning Centre (TCLC) • Mission to Seafarers • RSPCA • Unicare • St Vincent de Paul • Greening Australia • The Cathedral School Early Learning Centre
The purpose of the week is to give students a sense of serving others and the community, while also instilling a sense of awareness and appreciation for the lives of volunteers and those not as fortunate as themselves.
Swine Flu Update
Due to the recent increase in the number of confirmed cases of Swine Flu (H1N1), both nationwide and internationally, The Cathedral School strongly recommends that you consider immunising your child against seasonal influenza.
Although this is NOT a vaccine for Swine Flu (H1N1), the following recommendation has been published by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs for anyone travelling overseas or to Victoria during this time:
"Vaccination against seasonal influenza two weeks prior to travel is recommended....."
We recommend that you consult with your family doctor for advice regarding this government advisory. Read more
