Our Unique Difference
At De La Salle College Malvern, education is about more than academic results — it’s about shaping good young men with integrity, purpose and heart. Guided by our Lasallian values, we nurture the individual strengths of every student, offering a dynamic, future-focused education that empowers boys to thrive. What sets us apart is our deep commitment to character, community, and personalised growth — preparing each student not just for exams, but for life.
Character That Lasts a Lifetime
We place as much emphasis on who our students become as what they achieve. Through critical thinking, social responsibility and a deep respect for others, De La Salle students grow into considerate, ethical, and engaged citizens. Their impact continues long after they graduate — as part of a proud alumni network of compassionate and courageous men making a difference in their communities.
Learning That Fits Every Boy
No two boys are the same — and neither is their learning journey. We offer tailored opportunities through VCE, Vocational Major (VM), VET and specialised support and enrichment programs. From academic pathways to elite sports training and entrepreneurship, our approach empowers students to follow their interests, develop their strengths and shape a future they can be proud of.
Belonging Through Camaraderie and Spirit
At De La Salle, boys find more than just a place to learn — they find their people. Our vibrant House culture, co-curricular life and leadership opportunities foster a deep sense of pride, belonging and camaraderie. It’s here that lifelong friendships are formed, confidence is built and memories are made. This is a community where every boy is seen, supported and celebrated.
Guided by Lasallian Values
As a Lasallian school, our foundation is built on the values of Respect, Inclusion, Compassion, Education and Faith. These values guide everything we do — from how we teach, to how we care. Our students are encouraged to act with empathy, lead with integrity and serve others with humility — growing into young men who make a meaningful impact on the world.
Values for Life
At De La Salle College, we’re dedicated to shaping confident, capable and compassionate young men — grounded in values that guide them for life. Inspired by our Lasallian tradition, we create a culture where every boy is supported to grow in character, leadership and purpose.
Our five core values — Faith, Respect, Inclusivity, Social Justice and Education — are lived every day. They guide how we teach, how we care, and how we help each student become his best self.
We celebrate diversity, nurture individuality, and empower our students to think critically, act with integrity and serve others. At De La Salle, boys are known, valued and inspired — ready to lead, contribute, and thrive in a changing world. At De La Salle, these values aren’t just words — they are lived every day, shaping the way our students learn, lead and connect with their world.
Two Campuses, One Spirit
As part of our exciting Master Plan, De La Salle College is transitioning from three campuses to two — creating a more connected, streamlined journey for students from Year 7 to Year 12. Each campus is purposefully designed to support boys at every stage of their development, with tailored programs, modern facilities and a strong sense of community. With fewer transitions and greater continuity, our students benefit from deeper relationships, focused learning, and a shared school spirit that grows with them.
