As a welcoming community, we value the pursuit of excellence and the development of each individual as a learner, leader and teacher.
The College’s founding Sisters arrived in Parramatta from Callan, Ireland in 1888, determined to provide young women with new opportunities, including the chance for further education. The Sisters worked tirelessly to establish the foundations for what has become a leading independent school in the heart of Western Sydney.
Our vision is to provide a contemporary Mercy Education that empowers young women to lead with courage and act justly, making a difference in whatever sphere of life they choose to move, in the spirit of the Sisters of Mercy Foundress, Venerable Catherine McAuley.
Education at OLMC is a faith-filled experience: students are encouraged to explore the Catholic faith and to maturely engage with their spirituality. A Mercy Education is committed to a deeper engagement with the mission of the Catholic Church through liturgical celebration, prayer, reflection and opportunities for formation, leadership and involvement in ministry through practical Works of Mercy.
In addition to excellence in education, we are known for our focus on dignity and respect, as well as our strong sense of justice and social responsibility. A Mercy Education develops faith in Jesus Christ which finds expression in reaching out with compassion to welcome the ‘stranger’, the marginalised, and those in need. The College equips young women to be ambassadors of Mercy who embrace their role in society with confidence.
Our community of learners, leaders, teachers is inspired to expand beyond what they know they can be in both their personal and social spheres, in the pursuit of excellence.
We’re a leading Catholic independent girls’ school founded on the Mercy charism

Ritual Handover of Governance
At a special ceremony held at the College last Sunday, the process of transferring the Canonical Sponsorship Our Lady of Mercy College Parramatta from the Sisters of Mercy Parramatta to Mercy Partners, was completed. The event was attended by Sisters of Mercy, current College Board Members, staff and students, and members of the Mercy Partners Stewards, Council and Executive, and it followed six months after the official signing of documents on 18 October, 2021.
The Ritual marked a very important milestone in the College’s long, rich history. Since establishing the College in 1889, the Sisters of Mercy Parramatta have provided oversight and guidance as Canonical Sponsors.
