Mater Christi is a Catholic girls' secondary college located in the eastern Melbourne suburb of Belgrave, Victoria, Australia.

Contents

The school was founded by the Sisters of the Good Samaritan religious order in 1963 outside Belgrave, overlooking the Dandenong Ranges of Victoria. A rapidly growing population in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne saw Mater Christi College grow, and today there are more than 850 girls enrolled at the college, including students from several Asia-Pacific countries. Mater Christi offers a range of subjects to suit students and is designed so that students undertake studies from all areas of learning at Years 7 to 12. Students are then able to select from a wide range of VCE units.

Since 1989 an international student program has operated at the college, using homestay families to house the girls paired with an on-campus English and preparation program.
