St Augustine 's College, Brookvale (Sydney) is an independent Catholic
School for boys from Years 5 to 12, teaching the Augustinian values of
truth, love and community.
At the invitation of Cardinal Gilroy, it was founded by the Order of Saint Augustine in 1956.
Governance of the college has now broadened to include a Council of parents, staff, past students and Augustinians. It has a lay Principal, Mr Tim Cleary.
Situated in the Diocese of Broken Bay, the College has a total enrolment of 930 boys. It has a total staff of 110 including those who work on a part-time basis. Fr Peter Tangey OSA and Sr Joan Infante OSA form the College Chaplaincy team.
Following from their heritage and tradition as an Augustinian Catholic school, St Augustine's Mission Statement and Strategic Plan (2005 -2010) affirms the value of each and every individual within its community and calls for pro-active attention to be paid to the 'values of justice and equality of opportunity."
The Strategic Plan identifies seven focus areas for this period: Religious Nature, Curriculum, Students' Learning, Pastoral Care, Sport and Co-Curricular, College Partnerships and Environment and Facilities.
The Strategic Plan aims to assist the College to manage the changes in the world, society and in the Church, while maintaining the essence of the College -its central beliefs and core values.

St Augustine 's College prides itself on providing for the boys a broad range of quality education experiences. It has celebrated its 50th year (1956 to 2006), and has built a strong tradition in educating boys spiritually, intellectually, physically and vocationally.
Boys are assisted by highly qualified professional staff and are supported
by a comprehensive, vertically structured pastoral care program. Opportunities
abound for them to be involved in additional and extension activities.
The welfare of the students is paramount and is based on ready access to a full-time Psychologist, Chaplain, Year Coordinator, Director of Pastoral Care and individual Pastoral Care group teachers.
