Chanel College, Masterton is a Catholic secondary school situated in Masterton, New Zealand. The school is named after St Peter Chanel, who was a French Marist priest killed on the Pacific island of Futuna in 1841. The school was established in 1978. It resulted from the amalgmation of two schools, St Joseph’s College for Boys (founded in 1945) operated by the Marist Brothers and St Bride’s College for Girls which had been established in 1898 by the Brigidine Sisters. The College, which is located on the old St Joseph's College site, became an Integrated School in November 1981. It is owned by the Wellington Archdiocese with the Archbishop of Wellington (at present Archbishop John Dew, an old boy of St Joseph's College) being named as its proprietor in the college's integration agreement with the New Zealand Government.
