Recommended Posts

Newington House was the former home of colonial merchant and landowner John Blaxland, on the Parramatta River banks at Silverwater. The College opened its doors on 16 July 1863, with 16 students aged between seven and sixteen. The College was conceived as ‘…decidedly Wesleyan in its character. open to the sons of parents of all religious denominations.’ The College also functioned as the home for theological training for the Methodist Church in NSW until 1914.
Our motto encapsulates the school’s vision: Newington is where each person can discover what is possible. These corridors, classrooms, playing fields, chapel, and stages act as springboards to discover the very best in each child.’
Mr. Parker is the author of 10 books and was the SBS documentary Inspiring, Teachers. He aims to foster an environment that combines academic performance with enduring pastoral care programs to ensure boys are prepared for an unpredictable and constantly changing workplace.
