Story

Marist-Sion enrols students from towns spanning from Trafalgar to Nar Nar Good, and from Neerim District and Ellinbank District. Marist-Sion serves four local parishes; Warragul, Drouin, Trafalgar and Iona/Maryknoll. The College is one of the founding members of the Association of Marist Schools of Australia.

Marist-Sion College was formed in 1975 as a result of the merger between St Joseph's College, a boys' conducted by the Marist Brothers, and the Our Lady of Sion College, a secondary school for girls.
