Loyola College reviews
39It was great to spend time celebrating mass with our granddaughters, Loyola staff were very polite and well organised for grandparents day. Thank you.
Walked into the bathrooms and some guy was cooking up a feast in one of the toilet bowls.tasted Great! Best japanese street curry I have ever tasted!
Been here for two years and hate it. It seems as though they care more about the uniforms than our health, safety and education. Most students here are racist and use disrespectful derogatory toward people of other cultures. On a sport day, if you wear converse or shoes that aren't exactly meant for running, you will get an RND (detention), this includes converse, air forces, ext. A lot of the teachers don't hesitate to yell at a student for making a mistake. You must change uniforms throughout the day otherwise you get an RND. If your uniform doesn't consist of a blazer and neat formal uniform before you leave school when the bell rings, teachers will guard the school gates so you can't leave until you have met the requirements, otherwise you get an RND. I despise this school so much, and although I have made good friends, I still want to go to a different school. Do not send your kids to Loyola college.
Currently employed teachers and principal of students threatened physical harm to multiple students do not send your kid here they only show you the nice parts in the school which a few and far between
This is my second year at Loyola at I have had a great year with the teachers being very nice and the school grounds looking amazing every day.
The way you’ve spoken to students about their ‘celebration day’ for completing year 12 is incredibly condescending and disrespectful, considering the absurdity they went through to complete their final studies. I graduated in 2020 and my school still managed to create a ‘celebration day’. In the middle of a pandemic. Hopefully that behaviour sees a ‘demise’.
Based on the acting principals major Victim Blaming merely in an interview I would assume anyone who ever had an issue wouldn't get it resolved, rather the victim would be blamed.
Great set up for children for when they become adults and may be subject to DV!
My Sons attended Loyola Collage Sam & Bentley McLennan. Past students.
We are a Local Family.
I am a person with an Injury. Disability. I use a wheelchair to shop at Local Greensborough Plaza.
The access for elderly and Disabled people lift is limited to 4 lifts at the Plaza. In total.
On Wednesday 24/08/22. Approx 4 people at a time.
Three young female students joking with friends (ok young) however using the Lift to ‘Play games with a fellow Loyal student’.
Although totally ambulant.used a lift ‘for fun’. All wearing Uniforms. Whilst others waited.
I was very disappointed that these Students showed no respect, not only a wheelchair user. An elderly Lady using a waking frame No Respect.
She would have waited had not I welcomed her into the lift. Most certainly embarrassed of Loyola.
These sadly young ambulant Students, endeavoured to take up the entire lift.
I hope sincerely. Local students. Cleary wearing the Loyola Uniform will Uphold the Ethos.
Wear the Uniform. With respect.
I was embarrassed.

This school is a absolute disgrace the finance department are ruthless all they want is money $$ no compassion for families no discounts nothing $0 do yourself a favour and send your child to another local private school.
My child had an incident in the school grounds and the school has refused to cooperate and have been trying to cover up the event. My child has had to go through 30 thousand dollars worth of surgery while the school wont do anything about it
Simply amazing school, my son changed schools in Yr 8 and has gone from strength to strength, due to the dedication and commitment of teachers and support staff. Highly recommend!
Polarising in general. While some policies make sense, others such as presentation are rather half-witted. Staff members could either be a lifelong memory being a teacher that does their job properly and extends it beyond, others are not so helpful. Another aspect are the students, some of them are good friends and can lift up everyone's grades, while others unfortunately are either committing illegal activities such as using e-cigarettes underage, or rather annoying.
JOE JOE JOE FAVRIN THE MAN HIMSELF.the man loves flowers more than the students and wastest approx 2-3million on flowers a year. Source (trust me i have inside knowledge)
UNBELIEVEABLE! I was stumbling among the Loyola College gardens when to my shock, I saw PESSI FARMING Joesph Favrin's FLOWERS! I rung Mr Favrin immediately and he came to his gardens and gave Pessi a PENALTY! Unfortunately, Pessi was scared away at the sight of the penalty and took his bottles away to BOTTLE another important moment. Shame on you Pessi we will be coming down on you like a ton of bricks.
Rich and entitled, they have a bloody castle built on their grounds. Also from my experiences on the bus I can tell you at least half of the students aren't very catholic and holy. In fact, they're definitely sinners.
Ms Saunders needs to be fired! Principal is not good and hires to worst and creepiest teachers. They care more about uniform and facial hair then your education they will send you home if your uniform is can not be fixed at school.
This school is okay, it provides you with many opportunities and a lot of help if needed. But one con is that the school cares A LOT about appearance, for example they will send you home for having your dress to short. But in conclusion it is a good school.
DA BABY DOSENT GO TO THIS SCHOOL LIKE CMON REALY. THEY COULD GET HIM BUT THEY DONT LIKE GET THE DABABY MY SON LIKES DABY ALOT AND HE RIGHTS ON THE WALLS OF THE CLASSROOM SO HE WOULD RIGHT ON DABY INSTEAD
Mediocre education for the fees it charges. The school is ranked consistently 200th in the state (better education). Considering this, and the expenses paid, you can find better education elsewhere, which will give you more bang for your buck. I attended this school from 7-12 and from my experience it did not foster a great learning environment, teachers did not care about individual or cohort performance and I found myself constantly lacking education support. In year 12, I achieved a very good Atar, however, this was in no part from the education I received here, but entirely from my own self-learning. This school is very strict on student appearance, I don't see why they cant apply the same amount of effort into their education. The strictness of appearance is definitely disproportionate when compared to its education, for instance, they will literally send you home if you don't adhere to their rules. This shows that they would rather exclude you from learning, than have a kid with a little bit of facial hair. Additionally, for parents who are wondering whether to send your kids here, please consider what I have said, don't be deceived into going here by what you see on open days, such as; the nice appearance of the school, the gardens, uniform, buildings and the flashy neon sign, these all disguise the aforementioned negative aspects of this school. Underlying all these factors, I feel this school has to progress in terms of its mental health support services, as these were not abundant and they lacked the formal structure that some other schools have. In addition, from my experience I saw numerous bullying incidents, and many kids, mostly those with disabilities were picked on, and these kids eventually left by year 10. Edit; also, they need to more inclusive of LGBT people, by educating staff and students about them, as many kids were discriminatory and unaccepting of them. And, below my review, notice how all the good reviews are from parents of relatively new students, they don't know what there talking about as they haven't attended here first-hand, and do not know what culture this school actually inhibits when attending it. Plus, the new performing arts centre is a waste of money, more money should go towards the staff.
I was walking to the TWO WOLVES HUB when i saw none other than LEMICKEY stealing a ring from MR FAVRIN! Mr Favrin was on the floor crying so i had to explain that it was LeFraud’s only REAL RING! I then reported him to school counsellors JJ BAREA and STEPHEN CURRY! They took back LeDamnShame’s ring and gave him a MICKEY MOUSE ring. Shame on you LeChoke!
