The Ambrose Treacy College mission is to develop courageous young men of character and integrity, engaging them in dynamic and
relevant experiences and pathways that promote learning, personal growth, achievement and service. Ambrose Treacy College achieves
this by delivering a rigorous academic program, diverse co-curricular activities and a strong pastoral care system. Our programs support
the holistic pursuit of each student’s potential, offering a rich, balanced and engaging experience while recognising that each boy has
innate gifts and unique strengths. The fee structure has been developed to ensure that an Ambrose Treacy College education is
accessible to as many young men as possible and that each boy can take advantage of a variety of activities offered at the College. Our
fees offer value for money with a significant number of co-curricular activities included in the tuition fee.
