Ryan Catholic College is a combined, co-educational, primary and secondary school in what is now the City of Townsville, Queensland, Australia. It was established by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Townsville in 1979.[1] Ryan is the largest catholic school in Townsville.[citation needed]

It currently has over 1900 enrolments and employs approximately 200 teachers. Ryan Catholic College has 2 campuses with a junior school on the smaller campus, with the middle and senior schools located on the main (Ryan) campus.[citation needed]

A new two-storey building was constructed throughout 2007 on the main campus. The building houses classrooms, toilets, showers and a staffroom. The building replaces the former 'temporary' I block, which has been moved and now functions as a permanent set of classrooms.[citation needed]

In 2011, the college opened the Emmaus Hall.[citation needed]

There is a new library that was built in 2018 and finished around November 2019.[citation needed]
