A recent feature in The Courier Mail highlighting Queensland’s Top 100 Private Primary Schools—ranked on academic performance—has recognised Our Lady of Dolours as 40th across the entire state. Even more impressively, our school has been ranked 6th out of 146 schools within Brisbane Catholic Education. This is an outstanding achievement and one of which our entire community can be incredibly proud.
This result reflects the strong commitment of our dedicated educators and staff to maintaining high expectations for student learning and fostering a culture where every child is encouraged to strive to achieve. It is also a testament to the positive school culture we work so hard to nurture—one that values academic excellence alongside spiritual formation and student wellbeing. At Our Lady of Dolours, we believe that these elements are deeply interconnected, ensuring our students are supported to flourish as confident learners.
