St. Catherine's College (St. C's) is a semi-independent Catholic day and boarding school in Westminster, a district of Emmington, Septentria, Insulamia. It was a single-sex school named St. Catherine's Catholic College for Girls from its founding in 1897 until 1974, when the Education for All Act mandated the school allow all sexes to enrol. Under this act, the school also became a semi-independent school; it stopped charging tuition fees and became substantially government-funded.
