In the future the building masterplan will see Years 10 to 12 situated in Ardlie Street, Years 7 and 8 in Hopetoun Road and Year 9 in Canterbury Road.

History

The Sisters of Mercy established St Ann’s Convent, A Day and Boarding School for Young Ladies in 1872, on the present site of the Ardlie Street Campus. St Joseph’s Christian Brothers' College opened in 1902 at Canterbury Road. The two schools amalgamated in 1991 to become Emmanuel College. Since then there has been much growth, bringing all the facilities and curriculum choices of a large school. During the growth period, the school states that it has worked hard to retain its small-school atmosphere.[2]
