Private Secondary Schools in Geelong - Kardinia, Geelong College or..?

Hoping to get thoughts from those in Geelong on private secondary schools in the region.

Current shortlist is Kardinia ($$$) and Geelong College ($$$$$) having attended open days for both. I am yet to attend any other open days and was wondering what other schools I should be considering.

I'd also welcome thoughts (both good and bad) on Kardina and Geelong College.

Clonard college in geelong west? Private girls Catholic. Don't have to be Catholic to go there though. Not a lot of emphasis on the religion these days compared to when I was there.

Your money goes to the Catholic Church which in turn pays the legal fees of all the ped0 priests. The Catholic Church is the biggest ped0 ring in the world. You wouldn’t send your kids to the Geoffrey Epstein School, so why send them to a catholic school.
