Ursula Frayne Catholic College is a private, co-educational school located southwest of Perth, Western Australia, operating on two campuses. Years 7 to 12 currently attend Frayne at the Duncan street campus in Victoria Park, while students from Kindergarten to Year 6 are educated at the Balmoral street campus in East Victoria Park.
The College was established in its present form in 1990, but dates back to a school originally founded by the Sisters of Mercy, led by Mother Clare Buggy, in 1899. The school was named after Mother Ursula Frayne to publicly commemorate the first leader of the Sisters of Mercy and founder of many Catholic schools in Western Australia.
