Southern Cross Catholic College (SCCC) is a co-educational Catholic day school located in the north-eastern Brisbane suburb of Redcliffe in Queensland, Australia. The college opened 30 January 1995 after the amalgamation of several schools on the Redcliffe Peninsula; in particular: De La Salle College - both the Junior and Secondary College (located on Scarborough Road), Frawley College (located on Scarborough Road), Soubirous College, St Bernadette's of Scarborough, Our Lady Help of Christians (of Redcliffe) and Our Lady of Lourdes (Woody Point). The De La Salle campus (years 7 to 12), is located in Scarborough, and three primary schools (prep to year 6) are located in Scarborough, Woody Point and Kippa-Ring. The previous Headmasters were Mr Paul Woodcock, Mrs Robyn Killoran and Mr Greg Myers, the current principal is Mr Brett Horton. The school is built on the old De La Salle College site.
The school has four founders, Monsignor Frawley, John Baptist de La Salle, Daniel Delany, and Mary MacKillop. The four founders correspond to the four sports houses, Frawley (green dragons), La Salle (red lions), Delany (blue dolphins), and MacKillop (white boomers).
Southern Cross Catholic College consists of four schools throughout the Redcliffe peninsula: primary campuses in Scarborough, Woody Point, and Kippa-Ring, and a secondary campus in Scarborough, De La Salle campus.
