Each day begins like the last. Smiling faces, a chat with our bus driver, a race around our rooftop playground, and into class to make the most of every opportunity. This love of school is infectious, and it is promoting tremendous success both individually and collectively. Gawura was established in 2007 by St Andrew's Cathedral School in response to systemic underachievement and the apparent disparity in educational outcomes of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. The Head of School at…

St Aidan's is a Prep to Year 12 Anglican day school for girls, with a co-educational Kindergarten. It is located in Corinda, with approximately 800 students, reflecting our belief that students experience many smaller school benefits.

Selecting an education program for your child is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. In a world that is rapidly becoming more competitive, your child must be adequately prepared for his/her future. Our school has developed specific characteristics to accomplish this goal. One such feature is the structure of our learning centers. By combining ages and abilities, the more gifted students are challenged with an expanded curriculum. At the same time, the other students are motivated by contact with the more gifted. We also stress the importance of a low student/teacher ratio, which translates into more "one on one" interaction between staff members a…
