Our student leadership opportunities, student-led fundraising and events, and Entrepreneurial Education and Rite Journey programs are designed to build responsible, enterprising young minds. The school’s industry-leading Innovation Centre, featuring robotics studios and innovation laboratories, will further unleash the next generation’s potential.
Preparing future engineers, scientists and developers
Excellent learning opportunities, a reputation for and track record of region-leading academic performance, and a robotics team that has been ranked #1 nationally await young minds gifted in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. At Investigator College, our goal is to equip your child with the skills and knowledge to build the Fleurieu Peninsula’s future.
Energising future athletes, coaches and sports scientists
Investigator College has had the highest level of school sport participation in the Southern Fleurieu Zone for four years running. Its annual Surf Carnival, Certificate III in Sports Coaching, success in interschool swimming competitions, two ex-NBL players on its teaching staff, and national volleyball gold medals make it the ideal home for active students and promising young athletes.

With award winners in the Premier’s Anzac Spirit School Prize every year since 2020, Debating/Public Speaking and Media Production electives in our Investig8 Program, opportunities to engage in Legal Studies, Modern History and Literary Studies in Years 10-12, and a state-of-the-art library on the way, Investigator College is the ideal platform for the wordsmiths of tomorrow.
