Шаблон:Primary sources Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox school Ave Maria College is a Catholic secondary school for girls, established in 1963 by the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary (FMM). The college is located in Aberfeldie, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia.
This school is near to other Catholic high schools including St Columba's College and St Bernard's College.
Renovations to the school property in the last ten years include the glass-roofed Piazza with a winter garden, canteen and classrooms, refurbishment of the science and technology departments and an upgrade to the school library, now known as the Education Resource Centre (ERC). In late 2015, the school finished its renovations and had added several new classrooms and art rooms. This included a new third level building with a rooftop garden that has a view of the surrounding areas.
Houses
The four Houses are Mary, Helene, Francis, and Clare. They were previously named after great Australian women, though the names were later changed to connect more strongly with the school's religious foundations. The houses are now named in honour of the Virgin Mary, Helene de Chappotin (Founder of the FMM), St. Clare of Assisi and St. Francis of Assisi.
