Confident learners from the start
In our Junior School, every child is known, nurtured and challenged to thrive.
In a warm and supportive environment, we inspire curiosity, build confidence and develop the character, skills and love of learning that set children up for life.
Where Little Learners Flourish
From Pre-Kindergarten to Year 2, our youngest students learn in a safe, purpose-built environment designed to nurture curiosity, confidence and a love of learning.
Bright classrooms, dedicated outdoor spaces and easy access to specialist facilities – including the Library, Great Hall and Performing Arts Centre – ensure children enjoy the benefits of a full school experience from the very beginning.
As part of our Diamond Model, students learn in co-educational classes from Pre-Kindergarten to Year 2 before transitioning to single-gender classes from Year 3 onwards, at a stage when many children benefit from an environment tailored to their developmental needs.
