Chifley College Dunheved Campus is a co-educational junior secondary school in North St Marys, NSW, serving students in Years 7 to 10. The school holds Connected Communities School designation, reflecting its deep ties to the local area and its role as a hub for the surrounding neighbourhood. The campus sits on the Country of the Dharug people, and the school acknowledges this connection as part of its identity. The community it serves is culturally diverse, and the school's vision — that all people of all cultures work together, with the school placed at the heart of the community — shapes its approach to student life and learning. The school's strategic priorities centre on literacy, numeracy, attendance, transitions, and pathways. This focus reflects a deliberate effort to strengthen foundational skills while supporting students through the transition into senior schooling and beyond. As a junior college, the campus plays a distinct structural role within the broader Chifley College model, concentrating entirely on the Years 7 to 10 experience. The school is led by Principal Mrs T Azzopardi.
