Casimir Catholic College is an independent Roman Catholic comprehensive co-educational secondary day school, located in the Sydney suburb of Marrickville, New South Wales, Australia.
History Casimir catholic college was formed in 1983 from the merger of De La Salle College, a boys' school, and St Brigid's Girls' School, which had existed since the 1921s. The founder of both schools was the parish priest Father Casimir Maguire, and so the amalgamated school took his name.
