Our school provides all students with a single, seamless journey from Early Learning through Junior School, Middle Years and the completion of VCE in a Senior College setting.
Through our unique Diamond Education Model, the school offers a co-educational learning environment in ELC and Junior School (primary school) before separating students at the right physical and emotional time in their growth and development for single-gender education on separate dedicated campuses, dedicated to catering for the learning and wellbeing needs of our Senior Girls and Boys (secondary school).
These separate learning environments enable the best of both worlds, drawing on close to a century and operation and validated by research to allow girls and boys to thrive in safe learning zones, freeing students from traditional gender stereotypes.
Students and families from all sections of our school have their own dedicated spaces on our large campuses, remaining connected with a range of programs that create belonging and build community. It is the tapestry of opportunities that draw students together that truly create one school, one community.
