A LIBERAL, HUMANE, 

PROGRESSIVE EDUCATION. 

We lead the way in providing outstanding 

education for girls. For more than 120 years, 

Mentone Girls’ Grammar has been empowering 

girls to aspire to excellence and make a real 

difference in the world. 

Academic excellence in action 

We have a long history of academic excellence. Our 

girls are inspired to be bold, to be curious and to take 

responsibility for their own learning. Each year, our 

students surpass their own expectations, both individually 

and collectively. Almost three-quarters of the Class of 

2020 achieved an ATAR over 80 – evidence of a learning 

culture that lifts everyone up. 

A size that helps girls thrive 

Our school is big enough to embrace diversity – there’s 

space for each girl to find her ‘people’. It’s small enough 

to create a sense of intimacy and community, where 

every girl is known and valued. Our size means we can 

offer a wealth of co-curricular activities, but girls aren’t 

excluded due to competition for places. If a student 

needs support, she knows who to go to. And because 

her peers, school leaders and teachers all know her, they 

know how to help her. 

A community that cares 

Staff work in partnership with parents, alumni and 

students to help each girl develop her strengths, follow 

her passions and uncover her purpose. Our 122-year 

history gives students access to an impressive, multigenerational 

network of remarkable women, including 

meteorologists, physicists, psychologists, authors, 

sportswomen and lawyers, who generously provide 

mentoring and support simply because they love their 

school. 

Forward thinking. Future focused. 

While we’re focused on supporting the holistic needs of 

today’s students, we’re constantly innovating to ensure 

we meet the needs of the students of tomorrow. We 

encourage girls to take risks and apply a growth mindset. 

From competition-level debating to pitching a business 

idea; from diving off the springboard to sailing on the 

bay, our girls are empowered to navigate and embrace 

whatever challenges and opportunities come their way. 

ONE CAMPUS. 

ONE COMMUNITY. 

Steps from the Bayside beaches, our stunning 

single campus supports our holistic approach to 

education. 

Early Learning 

The unique blend of inquiry and play-based learning in 

our Early Learning Centre (ELC) forms the foundation 

of each girl’s educational experience. Every day is an 

adventure, offering endless possibilities to play, explore, 

develop relationships and engage with life’s joys and 

challenges. Each ELC group has a full-time early childhood 

teacher and a full-time early childhood qualified coeducator. 

Dedicated indoor and outdoor learning spaces 

inspire exploration, curiosity and creativity. Both threeand 

four-year-old ELC programs offer flexible three-, 

four- or five-day options to suit every family. 

Junior School 

In a nurturing environment, girls are encouraged to 

try new things, take risks and be bold. From sport to 

STEM, arts to enterprise, they are free to explore their 

developing interests and passions. Our intentional 

teaching program is based on the principles of the 

International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme 

(PYP), where girls learn through inquiry, creativity and 

self-reflection. Throughout Junior School, girls develop 

confidence, capability and self-worth – invaluable assets in 

their senior years and beyond. 

Senior School 

Our Senior School students are encouraged to explore 

a myriad of pathways through our middle years electives 

program, which enables them to take ownership over 

their learning. We offer a diverse selection of VCE and 

VET subjects for senior students, catering for a broad 

range of interests and pathways. Through consistent 

exposure to a rigorous academic curriculum, specialist 

subject teachers and exceptional pastoral care, they learn 

to read widely, inquire deeply and think critically.

Coeducational - Kindergarten to Year 12, Day and Boarding, Anglican 

In its 60th year, Peninsula Grammar School holds its place as the preeminent school on the Mornington Peninsula. An 

open-entry, coeducational school, located one hour’s drive south of Melbourne, the School is situated on 80 acres of 

gently sloping natural bushland and is renowned for the depth of opportunity it affords each child. With an exceptional 

record of academic achievement, a strong sporting program, and a performing arts program with an unsurpassed 

record of distinction, the School is inherently proud of its culture of excellence. 

Facilities 

Privileged to be located in one of the most sought-after corners 

of the country, extending across Mount Eliza, with stunning 

views of Port Phillip Bay, the School is renowned for its evolving 

landscape and the considerations it makes when building 

new learning environments. Its most recent building, ALATUS, 

is designed to combine technology and critical thinking in a 

purpose-built environment that challenges students to rethink 

their learning and discover fact from fiction. Our state-of-the-art 

Science Centre provides a pre-tertiary context of exploration 

where theoretical studies and laboratory experiences work 

hand in hand to deepen student’s inquisitive nature and innate 

understanding of the 

scientific world. With three 

gymnasiums, two outdoor 

heated swimming pools, 

soccer ovals, grass tennis 

courts and three more 

ovals, the School sets the 

benchmark for natural 

beauty and exceptional 

learning environments. 

Curriculum 

A Kindergarten to Year 

12 school, our curriculum 

provides a depth of learning necessary for students in the 21st 

century. While we are proud to be able to offer a multitude of 

subjects, it is the work done to enhance the learning and growth 

of every child within these subjects that matters most to us. 

We are particularly proud of our bespoke ALATUS curriculum, 

evolutionary in nature and driven by student interest, it is a 

powerful example of the transformation of education and the 

necessity of ensuring students learn how to think and develop 

the confidence and the skills to question. Our VCE program 

offers 34 subjects to students and enables them to choose 

a pathway that best suits them. With exceptional and highly 

experienced leaders in the VCE, the program ensures that every 

child knows success throughout their final years at the School. 

Cocurricular Programs 

We are renowned within the state of Victoria for the exceptional 

quality of our Performing Arts and Music programs. Students 

are afforded the experience to learn from some of the most 

recognised and professional theatrical leaders and musicians 

and in so doing the richness of their experience is unsurpassed. 

Regularly featuring in the VCE Top Class program, we are 

inherently proud of our student successes. Our Outdoor 

Education programs, particularly at Year 9 and 10, further the 

opportunity for students to be exposed to experiences that gift 

them greater insight into their own passions and pursuits, and 

we are excited by our future plans and evolution of our Outdoor 

Education curriculum. 

Music 

It has long been known that music enhances the developmental 

pathways of children in many ways. At Peninsula Grammar, we 

invest heavily in our Music program, so as to gift our student’s 

success on stage and inspire them to think outside the square. 

Students enjoy a broad range of musical experiences from 

the Junior Years Music program to VCE Music Performance in 

conjunction with our exceptional instrumental, ensemble and 

vocal programs. 

Performing Arts 

Peninsula Grammar’s Performing Arts program offers our 

students incredible experiences and opportunities to live 

their best lives. Each year our students take centre stage in 

multiple performances including our Junior Years Mini Musical 

Extravaganza, and our renowned Middle Years and Senior 

Years productions. Winner of a substantial number of awards, 

our Senior Years production sets the standard for student 

performance and is a highlight of our annual calendar. 

Sport 

Our sporting traditions are as old as our school, yet as 

transformational as society today. We are inherently proud of 

the growth of our sporting program, in particular our women’s 

AFL team and our touch football and cricket teams. Peninsula 

Grammar is a member of the Associated Grammar 

Schools of Victoria (AGSV). Our Middle and Senior 

School students compete in the winter and summer 

sports competition as part of their exposure to a 

curriculum that spans far beyond the classroom. 

Significant emphasis is placed on the necessity 

of resilience through team commitment, skill 

development and sportsmanship. 

Wellbeing & Positive Education 

As a proud school of Positive Education, we pride 

ourselves on the learning experiences we provide 

all students in better understanding their emotions 

and their existence within the world. We have strong 

pastoral support networks that work closely with every family 

to ensure that the growth and development of each child is 

experienced through a holistic framework of knowing who they 

truly are. 

Art, Design and Technology 

The Art, Design and Technology program provides a purposeful 

balance between breadth and depth of contemporary and 

traditional practices and caters for the individual differences 

of students. Students from Kinder to Year 12 are encouraged 

to develop an awareness of how the art and design process 

communicates values, ideas and meaning. They are asked 

to ‘think, imagine, create and appreciate’ in our art program. 

Starting from Kinder, creativity, exploration, skills and processes 

are embraced, encouraged and celebrated. Our art shows are 

considered some of the best on the Mornington Peninsula, with 

some of our students going on to study at the Victorian College 

of the Arts and pursue artistic professions in their own right. 

Boarding 

With the evolution of the pandemic altering the landscape of our 

boarding context this year, we remain committed to our Boarding 

Program and the richness that our international and domestic 

cohort add to our school. With two Boarding Houses located in 

distinct areas of the campus, the School works to provide our 

boarders with an unsurpassed learning experience, that enables 

them to not only pursue excellence but to learn more about 

themselves. We have a long and proud association with schools 

across China, Vietnam and Malaysia and are excited by the 

possibilities of reimagining our boarding program this year. 

Scholarships 

At Peninsula Grammar, we celebrate aspiration and 

achievement. Our scholarship program offers opportunities 

for exceptional students to reach their full potential. We have a 

diverse array of opportunities including academic and general 

excellence scholarships for Years 5, 7, and 9 as well as other 

opportunities to explore. Read about all our Scholarships on our 

website or feel free to consult with our admissions team directly.

SCHOOL CHARACTER 

Independent 

Year 12 

Established in 1914, St Leonard’s College 

is Bayside’s school of choice and one of 

Melbourne’s premier independent schools, 

educating students from ELC3 to Year 12. 

Generations of Leonardians have enjoyed 

exceptional educational experiences and 

thrived on the wonderfully diverse opportunities 

on offer at our college. 

At St Leonard’s College, our young people 

are educated in a physically, emotionally and 

spiritually safe environment where they are 

genuinely known, nurtured and loved. We are 

unwavering in our commitment to developing 

the whole child – head, heart and soul. 

St Leonard’s College is committed to the 

authentic values that reflect the community 

we serve. Our young people are encouraged 

to take responsibility for their learning and 

the active daily demonstration of the values 

we instil. 

Our students are welcomed into a warm, caring, 

connected community with an ethical culture 

founded upon a strong moral purpose: to 

develop genuine global citizens who respond 

to inequity, inequality and injustice. 

2022 marks 40 years since St Leonard’s 

College became Victoria’s first International 

Baccalaureate (IB) World School. The IB’s 

internationally-focused programmes aim to 

develop global citizens who are armed with the 

necessary skills, values and attitudes required 

to build an economic and social future in an 

increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and 

ambiguous world that is rapidly globalising. 

Our teachers are carefully selected for their 

academic prowess in addition to their ability 

to nurture the development of self-confidence, 

integrity, resilience and creativity. We seek to 

develop students who understand that their 

education is not only about what it can bring to 

their life, but through them what it can bring to 

the lives of others. 

A recognised leader in education, in 1972 

St Leonard’s College became the first single-sex 

independent school in the state to introduce 

co-education. In 2022 we celebrate 50 years 

delivering genuine co-education and outdoor 

education. Our vast experience tells us that 

both girls and boys thrive when they learn and 

grow alongside each other in an environment 

that truly reflects life beyond the school gates.

TRINITY GRAMMAR SCHOOL, KEW 


ELC - Year 12 

trinity.vic.edu.au 

“The thing I love the most about Trinity is the 

abundance of opportunities given to us. We are 

provided with the facilities to become the best 

versions of ourselves, in whatever form that is. 

Trinity has given me the platform to explore my 

interests, and excel in all aspects of my life, and 

I am so thankful for that opportunity.” 

Torren, Year 12 

Established in 1902, Trinity Grammar School, 

Kew is an Anglican, Independent school for 

boys located in the inner-East suburbs of 

Melbourne, Victoria. 

At Trinity, we know that every student is different 

and every educational journey is unique. On 

the path from early childhood learning to 

high school graduation, we strive to help our 

students discover and develop their passions, 

and inspire them to find their resilience as they 

encounter challenges along the way. 

Academically, our students perform 

exceptionally well from the junior level through 

to VCE. Through the Coordinate Program with 

Ruyton Girls’ School, Trinity students are also 

able to extend their studies and their minds in a 

co-educational learning environment. 

In alignment with Trinity’s academic curriculum 

is a comprehensive cocurricular program. 

Sport, music, performing arts, technology, 

design, hospitality and more are supported 

by specialist teachers and facilities, including 

expansive sport and outdoor education 

locations in Bulleen, Nillahcootie and Licola. 

The community that surrounds Trinity is centred 

in togetherness. The values of courage and 

compassion, which are also reflected in the 

‘Harambee’ student service program, stretch 

well beyond graduation and into an extensive 

alumni network, parent community and staff 

cohort who together characterise what makes 

Trinity, ‘Trinity’. 

Ultimately, we strive to see our students 

and graduates become the best version of 

themselves, whatever that may be. 

Message from the Principal 

“At Trinity, we seek to reveal and foster our 

students’ character. We challenge them to 

be conspicuous for their kind treatment of 

themselves and others, and to aim to be the 

best version of themselves.”

CAMBERWELL GIRLS GRAMMAR SCHOOL 


ELC - Year 12 

cggs.vic.edu.au 

Camberwell Girls Grammar School has been 

educating young women for over 100 years. 

It’s hard to convey the excitement of an 

education at CGGS. 

At CGGS every girl is welcome and every girl 

belongs. We get great joy from celebrating 

the uniqueness of every student. Our girls are 

grounded and unpretentious but nonetheless, 

fiercely ambitious. 

CGGS girls not only enjoy equal opportunity, 

they enjoy every opportunity and they 

participate fully in an environment where 

there are no boundaries. Our girls truly care 

about each other and the things that matter in 

life. CGGS girls whole-heartedly explore their 

passions and interests and together, they 

create an environment that has to be felt to 

be believed. 

At CGGS, education is designed for every girl 

because quite simply, we are every girl. We 

recognise the vital importance of preparing our 

girls for life and work in a rapidly changing world. 

Being intentional and explicit about our design 

of education matters if we want young people 

to thrive. The school is constantly building new 

programs, experiences and opportunities both 

in and out of the classroom to ensure that our 

girls are fully prepared for their futures. 

Every girl’s education is enriched by 

the extraordinary array of co-curricular 

opportunities on offer at CGGS. Our wide 

range of activities and clubs enable CGGS girls 

to explore physical, creative, social and career 

interests with like-minded peers. With over 90 

offerings, CGGS has something for every girl 

to be actively involved in and to make her own 

contribution to school life and culture. 

Wellbeing is embedded into every facet of 

school life at CGGS. Our own model, 360° of 

Being, incorporates five key domains - health, 

respectful relationships, positive education, 

environmental appreciation and cognitive 

engagement. It underpins everything we do, 

because we know when wellbeing is at its 

optimum, girls flourish. 

The school motto, Utilis in Ministerium (Useful in 

Service), is the core of what it means to be part 

of CGGS. Our girls quickly learn the importance 

of helping others and contributing to the wider 

community. It’s not just about raising funds, but 

about giving time to those in need and learning 

from others. Our Service Learning Program and 

dedicated classes, raise consciousness about 

injustice, encourage empathy and allow our 

girls to take action. 

CGGS is a vibrant, multicultural and highly 

inclusive school that offers opportunities for 

every girl to create her tomorrow. CGGS girls 

leave the school with global perspectives and a 

determination to pursue their dreams.

Student achievement and the pursuit of 

excellence are sources of great pride at 

Caulfield Grammar School - but it is not why we 

exist. Our purpose is to enable quality learning 

every day in every experience for every learner 

for life. 

Girls and boys are provided with continuity 

of learning throughout their entire school 

journey from Early Learning to Year 12. As 

a multi-campus School, established in 1881, 

each campus has its own unique learning 

environment and sense of culture. What unites 

us as one school, and helps each student find 

their place, are our purpose and our values. 

Our students developed their own set of 

behaviours that sit within our values. 

State-of-the-art technology, blended with 

modern learning spaces and outstanding 

facilities, ensures that students can follow their 

individual passions. Students are nurtured in 

the way we teach, the breadth of co-curricular 

offerings, and our commitment to every 

learner’s wellbeing. 

Our educators take a personalised approach to 

learning, constantly seeking out international 

best practice and innovation to anticipate and 

plan for emerging skills and careers. In the 

ELC and junior years, learning experiences 

and spaces are designed to cultivate creativity, 

curiosity, connection and compassion. Our

our children learn in an environment grounded 

by love and faith; and by fostering caring,

We are an inclusive community and treasure the 

unique spirit of each and every child. Quality

From Prep onwards, specialist teachers work 

with our children in a range of areas including 

the arts, music, languages and physical

Christ Church South Yarra and are the only 

coeducational Anglican parish school in 

Victoria for 3 - 12 year olds. We embed the 

Anglican faith and ethos into our daily practice,

positive role models.

right wrongs and to contribute to an

education to support them in reaching their full 

potential in whatever pathway they choose.

Year 7 

Year 12 

Situated across two campuses in the inner 

city of Melbourne, Simonds Catholic College 

is in a unique position of being the only 

Catholic school for boys on the doorstep of 

the CBD. 

Year 7-9 students start at the St Mary’s 

Campus, West Melbourne, which is just two 

blocks away from the Queen Victoria Market. 

Students move to the Year 10-12 Campus in 

Fitzroy North for their senior studies. 

The College motto, ‘Known, Supported, 

Inspired’ conveys the essence of our mission. 

The school is a learning community that 

promotes student wellbeing, safety and 

positive relationships, so that students can 

achieve success and reach their full potential. 

Our outstanding teachers deliver high quality 

programs to students within a spiritual, 

academic, cultural, social, and sporting 

dimension. There is a very strong sense 

of community and partnership amongst 

students, staff and parents as the College 

strives to produce the best possible outcomes 

for all students. Every student is capable of 

successful learning and Simonds Catholic 

College has high expectations for student 

engagement, attendance, behaviour and 

learning outcomes. 

“Dear Young People ... Do not be afraid to 

dream of great things” -- Pope Francis 

Our teachers are experts in knowing how to 

reach and teach boys and help them succeed 

beyond anyone’s expectations - even their 

own. 

Research shows the importance of wider 

reading in the development of crucial cognitive 

skills, expanding vocabulary and developing 

general knowledge. This is why we introduced 

the Reading Equals Power (REP) program. Our 

Year 7-9 students read novels of their choice 

during scheduled sessions and their efforts 

are celebrated through the presentation of 

awards for “most improved”, “most books 

read” and “most quiz points scored”. Our boys’ 

reading habits have changed dramatically. 

Reading really does give students power in 

the classroom and power in life. 

• A leading, inner city Catholic boys’ school 

• Small school with big opportunities, in the heart 

of the city 

• Our teachers are experts in teaching the way boys 

learn best, achieving outstanding outcomes for 

our students 

• We are committed to small class sizes to ensure 

your son will receive the attention he requires to 

achieve his personal best 

• Through our holistic approach of supporting our 

boys, they develop into confident, well rounded 

young men who have hope for their future 

• Specialist classrooms for STEM, music, visual arts, 

food technology 

• Students are provided with an abundance 

of opportunities to represent the school in 

activities from Debating, Public Speaking, Chess, 

Performing and Visual Arts through to our 

numerous ACC sporting teams 

Following our acquisition of a multi storey building on 

Chetwynd St and the completion of refurbishment of 

existing areas, we are thrilled to announce that Simonds 

Catholic College will become one school on one campus. 

By 2023 all students across Year 7-12 will be based at our 

West Melbourne site in the heart of the city.

Programme. 

In the Middle Years, the curriculum is taught 

sequentially using an inquiry approach. 

The program gives students increased 

responsibility for their own learning and 

emphasises intellectual development, 

negotiation skills and peer support. It allows 

students to progress according to their 

differing rates of accomplishment. There are 

also programs in Mathematics and English to 

extend students in their learning. The Learning 

Enhancement Program covers the individual 

needs of students during both the Early and 

Middle Years. It focuses on a spectrum of 

learning difficulties, with support provided 

through consultations with a wide range of 

specialist staff and external professionals. 

Programs for gifted and talented students are 

also available. In the Senior Years, students are 

divided into ten Houses. From Year 9 onwards, 

each student is assigned a tutor to oversee 

both their academic progression and overall 

wellbeing. This tutor group system provides 

students with support, encouragement and a 

strong sense of community.

At Erasmus Primary School, we 

recognise the power of attention as 

the master key to the development of 

your child. Focused attention brings 

stillness, intelligence, happiness, 

courage and every virtue that is needed 

for the discovery and development of 

your child’s talent – be it academic, 

artistic, physical or emotional. We use 

simple mindfulness exercises to help 

focus the mind and enable your child 

to develop an inner quiet, strength 

and steadiness. They are then able to 

attend to the task at hand with greater 

application. 

• Focus on the cultivation of every aspect of the 

child – body, mind, heart and spirit 

• An ambitious and creative curriculum 

• An academic focus with consistently high 

academic results and a low student/teacher ratio 

• All students and staff eat together daily, enjoying 

a freshly prepared vegetarian morning tea and 

lunch 

• In addition to a thorough, systematic grounding 

in Literacy and Numeracy, other subjects include 

Philosophy, Thinking and Learning, Health 

and Physical Education, Science, History and 

Geography. We take a classical approach to 

languages including studies in Sanskrit and Latin

of responding to local community needs 

and making education accessible to 

all talented young people, especially 

families seeking to educate their 

children together.

Yarra Valley Grammar Overview 

Established in Ringwood in 1966 and set on 

a spacious 30-hectare single campus, Yarra 

Valley Grammar overlooks the picturesque 

Dandenong Ranges. Our students excel under 

the guidance of great teachers who love what 

they do and seek to inspire them to strive for 

excellence. The School offers an extensive 

range of contemporary opportunities and sets 

high standards of performance, encouraging all 

students to achieve their personal best. Great 

teachers are able to communicate complex 

concepts in simple ways. They can vary the way 

they teach to suit the way each student learns. 

This takes patience, flexibility and the ability 

to see things from the students’ perspective. 

Yarra Valley Grammar’s team of teachers know 

their material, love their subjects and love to 

teach. They have a genuine interest in getting 

to know their students, so they can teach them 

effectively, encourage them to achieve their 

best, identify issues or problems, and care for 

their welfare. Our teachers are also role models 

for our students, promoting the School’s core 

values such as respect, concern and action for 

others, and treating others as they wish to be 

treated. 

Outstanding VCE Results 

In 2020, our VCE students have once again 

achieved some excellent and well deserved 

results including: 

• Dux of the School – ATAR of 99.95 

• Eleven perfect study scores of 50 

• The median ATAR was 86.75 

Three students from this cohort achieved the 

highest award – The Top All-Round VCE High 

Achiever Premier’s Award – which is awarded 

to students who have achieved study scores of 

46 or higher in at least five VCE studies. These 

are three out of only twenty three students 

who received this top honor and is the highest 

number of any school in the state.

A Woodleigh education provides more than 

just an excellent academic preparation for 

the future. It offers a journey of experiential 

learning and discovery, which prepares each 

individual for life’s challenges beyond school. 

Woodleigh encourages students to be 

adventurous with their learning. It affirms 

creativity, independence, self-motivation and 

initiative; elements you can sense as soon as 

you enter the school. 

Our three unique campuses, Minimbah in 

Frankston South, Penbank in Moorooduc and 

the Senior Campus in Langwarrin South, are 

entirely coeducational and committed to the 

belief that this is the only suitable setting to 

educate both boys and girls for adult life. 

WOODLEIGH SCHOOL 

We see the development of academic 

learning, personal wellbeing, and student 

engagement as being interdependent. As a 

result, we promote the development of student 

outcomes across the essential elements of 

learning: the understanding of concepts, the 

acquisition of knowledge, the mastery of skills 

and the ability to perform meaningful tasks in 

real-world settings. We understand that such 

deep learning happens best in safe, supportive 

and respectful environments where students 

can take risks, question their assumptions, 

respond creatively, and explore new ways 

of thinking. For this reason, our approach to 

teaching is paced to students’ learning needs, 

tailored to their learning preferences, and built 

around their specific interests as learners.

Leadership Opportunities 

The development of leadership skills is one of the most important aspects of every student’s education. At Bacchus Marsh 

Grammar we are driven by the belief in “Leading as Service”. That true leadership comes from a desire to serve and assist 

others and the environments and settings in which they work and live. The service focused leader puts the needs of others 

first and helps others achieve their goals and do their best. 

We are proud of the range of opportunities at our School for students to develop and practise their leadership skills 

through participating in activities and refining existing skills. 

Our leadership programs start in the early years of Middle School and reinforced with a series of graded opportunities in 

higher year levels. 

Staughton Vale Program 

Our purpose built and picturesque Staughton Vale Campus is just 20 minutes from our Maddingley Campus and on the 

fringe of the Brisbane Ranges National Park. From Prep to Year 12, all students access the Staughton Vale Campus for 

excursions and learning activities as part of their education journey. 

Boasting more than 200 undulating acres of fertile pastures, orchards, dams and natural forest, Staughton Vale enhances 

the learning experiences of all students. It also heightens the relationship and understanding of each student’s impact on 

the local natural environment and their wider role as a global environmental citizen.

Authentic Experiential Learning 

Creating authentic experiences for students 

to build capacity to understand who they are 

in their world, and others living in different 

worlds, is a crucial part of Christian College’s 

educational perspective – from Kindergarten 

and Prep through to Year 12. 

Our Bush Kinder and Bush Prep programs 

provide access to spaces that allow children to 

be immersed in sensory experiences in nature. 

From Prep – Y4, we offer an excellent core 

learning program and unparalleled specialty 

areas taught by dedicated staff, including Music, 

Japanese, Phys Ed, Library, Art and Digital 

Technologies. 

Our Languages program features specialist 

language and native speakers teaching 

Japanese from K - 12 and Indonesian from 

Y5 - 12. Underpinning this are decades-long 

relationships with sister schools – Naga High 

School in Iwade, Japan (30 years) and SMA 

Negeri 2 in Mataram, Lombok (25+ years). 

There are short-term and long-term exchanges 

in Indonesia and Japan, where students stay 

with local families and live their daily routines. 

Reciprocal visits are made by our sister schools 

to Geelong. 

Our Instrumental Music offerings at all 

campuses, give students many opportunities to 

develop and showcase their talents, solo and in 

ensembles, in authentic performance settings – 

locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. 

Many Christian College graduates have gone 

on to enjoy highly successful music careers. 

Another unique offering is the Year 9 

Transformation Program, which includes half a 

term living and working at the College’s Back 

Creek Farm, a commercial dairy operation 

near Ballarat. Here, students undertake a 

variety of tasks essential for the running of the 

farm. They also spend time in our Back Creek 

Café in Meredith, living the ‘paddock to plate’ 

experience and learning a range of hospitalityrelated 

skills. 

Further immersive learning comes with the Our 

World elective programs at our Senior campus. 

Classroom-based learning harnesses student 

passions about making a difference in their 

world. Powerful, experiential learning occurs 

when they visit Central Australian communities 

or communities we have befriended overseas in 

East Timor, Vietnam and Cambodia. 

We invite you to visit our website, make contact 

and book a tour – come and see for yourself 

how The Learning That Matters is effectively

innovative core and specialist area programs.

As a College we know that the relationship and 

partnerships that are forged between home 

and the College are paramount to our success 

as parents and educators. We seek to maximise 

the teaching and learning opportunities for 

each child through creating and maintaining 

safe, happy environments where there is an 

atmosphere conducive to learning. For this 

reason we seek to encourage parents and 

staff to pursue effective ways of building and 

maintaining open lines of communication. 

As a professional team of educators and 

administrators we are here to serve in an 

environment in which teachers have the 

opportunity to teach and students have the 

right to learn. Our core values are synonymous 

with those of the wonderful families who have 

chosen to send their children to Geelong 

Baptist. As a community our commitment 

to the holistic development of each child; 

Academically, Physically, Emotionally and 

Spiritually is very important. 

Geelong Baptist College is a growing 

community in excess of 300 students across 

the Primary and Secondary campuses. 

We encourage all to see our educational 

community as “Two Schools yet One College” - 

a College where our students can journey from 

Foundation right through to their graduation 

at the completion of Year Twelve. The benefit 

of an extended and personal journey of this 

nature cannot be underestimated. We are 

acutely aware that decisions about your child’s 

education are difficult to make yet are amongst 

the most important decisions you will make as 

a parent. 

We invite you to visit us to consider embarking

celebrating all life • challenging all people • dreaming the new day 

MacKillop College believes in the importance of offering a wide 

variety of different disciplines of learning. Whether a student 

has an affinity for academia, politics, social matters, religion, 

leadership, sport, performance, music, hospitality, etc. 

MacKillop College strives to give our students the tools they 

need to pursue their interests and build their experiences. We 

support the whole person according to what will most benefit 

them in their individual journey. 

MacKillop also provides students with opportunities to 

explore, discuss and address current political and social 

issues that are highly relevant on a global level, looking at 

justice, harmony and unity, the environment, and social 

change. Students are provided with guidance to become 

advocates for transformation in our world. This is evidenced 

by the student-run extracurricular groups, which include 

EcoMacK (aiming to implement sustainability strategies 

on campus as well as within the community), the debating 

team, MacKillop College Zoo Crew (giving students hands-on 

experience in animal husbandry), and HarMacK (Harmony at 

MacKillop, which focuses on cultural diversity and inclusivity). 

A further example in how the College embraces diversity can 

be seen in our International Program, reaching into Europe 

and Asia with international trips, homestay opportunities and 

immersion programs. It is also in service to this that we bring 

those cultures closer to home for those who are not able to 

travel internationally. In combination with Languages Week, 

Harmony Week, Music Week, etc., diversity is celebrated. 

At the time of writing this, we have overcome another season 

of lockdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been a 

humbling reminder of the resilience and adaptability required 

when working together towards a greater good. 

MacKillop is a Catholic College in the Josephite tradition, 

inspired by the spirit of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop, and 

during this time, the words of wisdom offered by our patron 

saint, words of strength in unity, and hope in the face of 

adversity, helped to strengthen our resolve to survive and 

thrive. On the cusp of a new normal, MacKillop College has 

been, and will continue to be, resilient and adaptable.

RED ROCK CHRISTIAN COLLEGE 


At Red Rock, our vision is to support and 

empower students to influence their 

world with integrity. This begins from the 

day our students join us and continues 

right through their schooling. 

In the early years we provide them with a 

safe, nurturing environment that teaches 

them to explore, ask questions, think 

deeply, to respect others and to be just 

and compassionate. As they progress 

into the Middle Years students will be 

taught to combine independence with 

interdependent learning. They will be 

inspired and equipped as 21st century 

learners by staff that are dedicated to 

their growth and well-being.

Educating our students during this pandemic has proven the benefits 

of the integrated approach of Faith, Wellbeing and Learning at Red 

Rock Christian College. Staff and students alike are in the midst a great 

challenge. Yet, we see them rising to the challenge – embracing online 

learning, applying wellbeing strategies, and championing each other. 

At RRCC, our belief that young people from Prep-Year 12 are fearfully and 

wonderfully made is at the heart of what we do. It motivates us to seek 

ways to see all young people flourish. Our strengths-based wellbeing 

approach enables us to focus on what is ‘right’ with people, to empower 

young people to embrace their strengths, build a strong positive identity 

and establish healthy relationships. 

We empower students to own their learning, pursue their passions and 

influence their world with integrity by demonstrating and teaching healthy 

mindsets, strength-based language, wellbeing strategies and skills in 

maintaining positive relationships. Our Head of Wellbeing ensures staff are 

well trained in Visible Wellbeing and Restorative Practice. 

In Prep-Year 6, we establish the foundations for building a life of learning, 

thinking intelligently, and for developing character. A child’s experiences 

and their environment in the early years are highly influential in the 

way they see themselves and others. During these years, we focus on 

developing a healthy identity, resilience of character and the ability to 

value others and to interact positively with peers and teachers. We know 

our children will thrive in and not just survive their years of school with a 

rock-solid foundation. 

The Secondary years at RRCC is a place to build on this foundation – to 

coach and walk alongside our teens as they become more independent 

in their thinking, as they explore and form opinions about the world 

and their place in the world. As a Christian school, we help our students 

understand God’s loving view of the world and its people and to recognise 

the unique ways in which they can bring life, justice and hope to the world. 

The Secondary years are about honouring and supporting the capacity of 

our young people to manage and choose their education increasingly. It is 

about equipping them with character, skills and understandings that will 

prepare them to influence their world with integrity.
