After they changed the uniform next year you proabably think its a public school. In who's right mind was it to change the uniform to the worst sight of my life. Honestly My eyes couldn't take it anymore I just wanted to cry on how they would change an average uniform to a worst uniform in adelaide so one lesson for next time If it ain't broke don't fix it. The old teachers are bad so you have to hope that you get a good class with good people which is a 1/5 chance or also 20% chance you get in the class you want. And the toilets are just appaling and dreadful smell like someone is vomiting fruits. And a lot of these boys simp to teachers and don't get me started on the bus where they behave like mad animals always yelling around doing silly things. 3 years ago this school was meh now it is not meh it is so terrible just don't believe the lies they tell you about the school. If you want to choose a good boy school do not go to Christian brothers college and the world is not before them. If you want a good boy school choose Prince Alfred College, St peters boys or Blackfriars. I even rather go to Modbury High school or even golden grove high school you know that says something. Teacher tried ruining my whole life and discouraging by telling false statements to get me in trouble that was last year but I still feel the pain

I offer you a warm welcome to Christian Brothers College (CBC), an all-boys Catholic College in the Edmund Rice Tradition. CBC offers a Birth to Year 12 education across three campuses, in the heart of Adelaide City on the sacred land of the Kaurna people. CBC is an important thread in Adelaide's history. Our rich tradition and renowned reputation in providing a safe, happy and values-rich education serves as a point of difference. Our heritage provides a steady foundation in equipping our students for the diverse and tumultuous landscape of the 21st Century. We blend history with innovation, and in doing so, offer our community an education that allows students to dream the impossible and realise their incredible potential.

Alright chief, lemme get real with you for a good second right This ruddy school is right proper decent. I've seen some blokes on ere hatin' on CBC, but by the looks of their reviews, they're just a tad salty that they have no clout and just aren't really successful. Well mate, lemme just sum it up real quick. If you want some great comrades, mate-ship, some bang-oath legendary teachers (The physics teacher Mr Santini is a proper Bloody mad lad), and to actual win a school sport match, come join CBC. I say we face the facts. CBC is trash, but oath its ruddy a million times better than any other school you can send your kids to.

  • Damien Costas

If only there was a solution to bullying and frequent staff turnover, then this would be the best school in the country. The principal and deputy do care a lot. But there is only so much that they can do. Perhaps, they are short of staff or maybe the existing ones don’t care because this is beyond their job description. The school has immense potential and is investing a lot as well but it’s of no use of when parents pull kids out due to constant bullying and classroom disruptions.

  • Charlene Thornton

Christian Brothers College Adelaide has provided my sons with an incredible variety of academic, sporting and extra curricular choices, within a caring and supportive environment. The ethos of ‘brotherhood’ pervades all aspects of the college and a strong focus on pastoral care and community engagement makes CBC the optimal environment to shape today’s boys into tomorrow’s progressive and respectful men.

  • Ravinu Appuhamy

As a former student who left in year 9, I think what CBC could improve on is their academic reputation, trying to aim and promote scholarships to recruit more students who have strong skills in music, sports and academics. Another way is to publicise the school image even more with advertising, this way it can give the school an new reputation and image.

  • Lynley Prescott

Pretty Disgusting the insensitivity and impaitence the School has regarding fees! they have been informed of a time period for fees to be paid in full they have still taken court action Even with 20+ emails back n forth trying to come to an agreement for them to patiently wait due to change in circumstances !! Shows they are greedy church mongers !!

  • Nicholas Mosley

The Education at this school is very good teaching boys in an Edmand Rice tradition. The reason I gave it 3 stars is that some of the teachers are not qualified enough, some teaches snap easily some are just down write dumb. the second thing is the building the new building 10/10 but the old building 0/10.

  • CARLTON FAN2222

Dont sent your son to this school the only thing they do is vape. Teachers always blame the victim instead of the bully. teacher quality is a no. People say the canteen is overpriced and just not a good school all round

  • Andre Riccardi

Great college with excellent staff and facilities. The school cultivates a strong sense of community between students and staff which significantly contributes to student's individual development.

  • Ryan Le

i left in year 5 and from my friends experiences in the highschool the behavour is pretty bad, but the education is all right, the new building is pretty good but the old building was pretty bad

  • milo vandepeer

LOVE THIS SCHOOL THE TEACHERS ARE VERY KIND AND TEACH ME GOOD THINGS!! THE CANTEEN FOOD IS GREAT, I LOVE EATING $7 SAUSAGE ROLLS! #BESTUNIFORMS #LOL #HELPIGETBULLIEDEVERYDAY

  • siro neath

Im truely disappointed with the students of CBC. Your students have purposely thrown multiple trash cans at my window. Please work on their behaviour as this is not acceptable at all.

  • Shauna Hockley

A brilliant College with knowledgeable, caring teachers. The staff get to know the students well and ensure their learning is maximised. The facilities on each campus are excellent.

  • DramaDolls

One of the happiest days of my life was when I finally left this school. My self-esteem, which this school had progressively destroyed over the years, was gradually restored.

  • Marcus Romeo

this school taught me how to do quick questions on the balcony. The facilities shine brighter than Mr. Del Col's head (which is also a renewable energy source).

  • Archer Lowman

Do not listen to the people who say this school is bad, they are just idiots looking to blame there bad life on something. This school is amazing!!!!!

  • Bill

CBC Wakefield St has educated and empowered Catholic Boys for over a Century. This humble Irish order has changed the world for the better.

  • Megan Maualaivao

CBC senior school have been the best choice for us. They have supported not only my son throughout his years but also our family.

  • Super Cat

Great curriculum and co- curricular and helps boys achieve their personal best. We are pleased we chose this school for our son.

  • Mini

This school has a bad representation. Even blackfriars better. The teachers over at cbc are bad and they don't even teach you.

  • Jake Kollarackal

This school is the worst school ever. Bad behaviour and bad teacher's. Don't think of going to this school. It is trash.
