About Me

  1. The Illawarra Grammar School (TIGS) was founded in 1959 through the concerted efforts, vision, and energy of the late Bishop Gordon Begbie and a dedicated band of 'founding parents' who firmly believed in the need for a regional Anglican School to be based in the Illawarra. Those families' vision and philosophy to fully develop young people spiritually, intellectually, socially, and physically in order that they might enter society with strong Christian Foundations to lead and serve are still followed today. The school has come a long way in its short history thanks to the leadership of successive administrations and its many families' dedicated support. On its opening day on 3 February 1959, the first Headmaster, the late Rev R F Bosanquet, and two staff welcomed 28 boys into a close and caring community. In 1975, the school became co-educational when it amalgamated with SCEGGS `Gleniffer Brae'. TIGS now has an enrolment of approximately 1000 students, Preparatory to Year 12, housed in a modern educational setting with a well-established and acknowledged reputation for delivering programs of excellence. As educators, our responsibility is to prepare young people for their lives after school as adults in a world characterized by unpreceded rates of change. Technological advancement, globalization, and significant political and economic change mean that their social and professional futures will differ from previous generations and will be more mobile and globally connected than ever before. Schools must respond to this future reality for their students. We are very proud that at TIGS, we continue to embrace these challenges through our clear focus on teaching and learning, the embedding of wellbeing for our students and staff enabling them to achieve their best, our attention to staff development, and through our review and further enhancement of our learning environments. Our current Strategic Vision and accompanying master plan for our site, TIGS21, place us in a strong position to continue to meet the challenge of educating young people into the future. It is a huge privilege to be entrusted with the responsibility of educating young people. At TIGS, we are focussed on providing relevant and enriching learning that equips students with the new skills, essential knowledge, and underpinning values needed to shape their future and contribute meaningfully to both local and global communities. We are proud to observe our Alumni, leaving TIGS and operating as next-generation thinkers, innovators, and creators. The School Motto, "from strength to strength," captured the intention of our founding families in 1959. Today, this is expressed through the Statement of Mission, and its three Core Values are The achievement of academic excellence in a caring environment that is founded on Christian belief and behavior so that students are equipped to act with wisdom, compassion, and justice as faithful stewards of our world. TIGS community welcomes students and families that share these values. We look forward to the achievements of our next 50 years - maintaining the traditions while applying the school's values to the future's opportunities and challenges. I warmly encourage you to join us for an information session or tour to see for yourself what TIGS has to offer your son or daughter. In November 2004, the School Council met with representatives from the TIGS Community to revisit the school's statements of purpose. The ideas generated at those subsequent meetings were collated by the Headmaster and a sub-committee of the School Council to prepare a Statement of Mission and Values. In preparing the document, the School Council sought: To capture the school's unique qualities To plan future directions To provide a platform for the future growth of the school The achievement of academic excellence in a caring environment founded on Christian belief and behavior. Students are equipped to act with wisdom, compassion, and justice as faithful stewards of our world. View full school
  2. The Hills Grammar School was founded in 1982 with the purchase of a 10-hectare site in Kenthurst, 30km north-west of Sydney CBD. It was a beginning that had boldness and hope at its heart. The almost-country school of 1983 now sits on the perimeter of rapid suburban expansion, and the original enrolment of 182 students has increased to 950, and our campus now covers 18.4 hectares. Infrastructure, including rail, is under construction nearby to service the fast-growing Hills District population. While most of our students come from within a 15-kilometer radius, Hills Grammar still sits within an eminently beautiful and natural parcel of land where learning is central and distraction minimal. Students enjoy the same collegial ambiance that set it apart 34 years ago, most apparent in the easy conviviality between students and teachers. There are no bells to herald the change of classes. Native birds can be heard above the chatter of children, while the presence of bush-dwelling goannas and echidnas are almost taken for granted. These priceless experiences make life at Hills Grammar special. Pre-schoolers to HSC students occupy the same campus, creating a healthy family feels confirmed by a non-selective entry policy favoring siblings. Our school also mirrors the diverse nature of modern Australia. It is proudly inclusive, a reality emphasized by our curriculum, which strives to be outward-looking and relevant to a changing world. Our emphasis lies in providing a broad, liberal education, including the International Baccalaureate PYP Program in Early Childhood to Year 6 and a commitment to the rigorous offerings of the New South Wales curriculum up to the Higher School Certificate. Knowing that some students will change careers many times in their lives, we promote thinking skills, encourage curiosity, and instill a deep love of learning. Above others, these qualities are sustaining and will aid our graduates as they enter the world beyond our gates. Vision is to Extraordinary Education: Extraordinary Individuals. The mission is to Outstanding teaching within a unique learning environment: fostering each student’s potential for greatness. Graduate Aim is In partnership with our families; we enable our students to: Become confident, resilient, and responsible individuals Develop a deep understanding across a range of academic disciplines and strive for personal excellence as learners Think critically and creatively and embrace life-long learning Embody the humanitarian values of Respect, Integrity, Service, and Excellence Understand the importance of an international perspective and contribute positively to our local and the global community Develop an appreciation of a diverse and inclusive Australian democratic society Display a strong sense of environmental responsibility View full school
  3. It is exhilarating to be leading Grammar at this time, and a genuine privilege to be entrusted with the education of some of the brightest and most impressive young men in the country. Grammar is a thriving, motivating, and purposeful place built on an ethos that draws significantly on the Western European Enlightenment'sEnlightenment's enduring values. While an impressively notable feature of the school'sschool's reputation, examination success is just part of the picture of a busboy's intellectual, physical, and social development throughout his time at Grammar. Indeed, a love of learning and a passion for the past's greatness, the dynamism of the present, and the opportunities of the future remain essential to the boys' daily lives. Furthermore, an astonishing range and depth of opportunities exist beyond the classroom, be these in Music, Sport, Debating, Drama, and so much more. Our nurturing of each individual boy'sboy's talents to his fulfillment is such that there is no typical Grammar boy. Our boys have in common that they emerge from Grammar as articulate, confident individuals with a strong sense of their places in society, ready for university and the wider world. Interestingly, the minutes from an early Trustees'Trustees' meeting asserted that the school'sschool's object would be "that it furnishes a superior general, not a professional education its object is not to prepare its scholars for any determinate occupation but to communicate such information, and such intellectual training, as may best assist them in the subsequent acquisition of special knowledge, and the efficient discharge of their social and public duties." Given the inevitably changing nature of what will be considered professions in the years to come, it will be essential for our young men to have a pure academic grounding in order to be in a position to choose their path in the future. Thus, we remain true to our Trustees'Trustees' historical vision and practical, contemporary purpose. The modern College Street has around eleven hundred boys, St Ives over four hundred, and Edgecliff three hundred. Our boys now proceed from the school to a variety of Universities in New South Wales and beyond. However, the primary purpose of Grammar as set out in the Act to confer on all classes and denominations of Her Majesty'sMajesty's subjects resident in the Colony of New South Wales, without any distinction whatsoever, the advantages of a regular and liberal course of education'' – remains the same. Since its foundation, the school and its old boys (called ''Old Sydneians'') have played an essential part in this country's history.

  4. Shore was established in 1889 as a leading comprehensive school for the education of boys. In 2003 we also welcomed girls to our Early Learning Centre and Kindergarten, Year 1 and Year 2 facility at the Northbridge Campus. Our rich history and traditions have powerfully shaped our school, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Reflecting on Shore's Christian foundations, we focus on developing the whole person - intellectually, physically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. We place a strong emphasis on character formation, challenging our students to be responsible citizens of integrity who seek to serve the wider community. Our commitment to a genuinely comprehensive education means we pursue engaged rigor in academic work and offer a wide range of learning experiences, both in and out of the classroom. We create a genuine partnership between the school and home, enabling each student to discover their talents and preparing them for the realities and challenges of our contemporary world. We believe the best evidence of success will be exhibited in the adult lives of those who have passed through the school. We are proud of our many Old Boys who have served in all walks of life with great dedication. Shore's dynamic tradition is founded on authentic and transformative Christian faith, emphasizing engaged rigor in academic work, relational service of others, growth in character, personal best in games, and co-curricular activities. With this as its foundation and within its charter, Shore seeks to be the leading comprehensive school in Australia. The school stands on a site of just over eight hectares on a hill-top two hundred meters from the North Sydney railway and bus station. It has magnificent views of the Harbour and the City of Sydney. The site is all the classroom blocks, administrative offices, the Library/Resource Centre, Information Technology Centre, Lecture Theatres, a 500 seat auditorium, and an Assembly Hall. The BH Travers Centre opened in 2000, incorporates the Playfair Hall, the Boer War Contingent Memorial Library, the Information Technology Department, and a gymnasium. The Chapel, dedicated in 1915, can seat 350 and occupies a central position in the school. Nearby are four Boarding Houses and a central Dining Hall. The Preparatory School (founded 1926) adjoins the primary school on the western side. It was significantly upgraded in 2006, and the complex provides expanded classrooms and other educational accommodation for Prep boys. For organized games at North Sydney, there is one oval and numerous cricket nets, tennis, and basketball courts. There is also a fully equipped physical education complex with two gymnasiums, circuit and weights training areas, two squash courts, and an eight-lane 25-meter swimming pool, with a separate diving-pool. The school's main sports facility is at Northbridge, five kilometers to the north, where the school bought 9 hectares of land in 1916. This now has one of the most delicate ovals in Sydney and five other full-sized ovals, as well as tennis courts, pavilions, and dressing rooms. The Northbridge campus also incorporates the K-2, Early Learning Centre, and Long Day Care, which opened in 2003 as a significant addition to the Preparatory School at North Sydney. The grounds were opened in 1919 as a memorial to the 880 Old Boys who served and the 122 who died in the Great War. Rowing has been part of the School tradition since 1890. The Gladesville Rowing and Function Centre is pleasantly situated on Looking Glass Bay, Gladesville, ten kilometers west of North Sydney. The school also owns about 20 hectares of bushland at Linden in the Blue Mountains. In 2009, the school acquired the adjacent site Graythwaite and this 2.7-hectare site has given a whole fresh perspective to the school and educational opportunities. View full school

Being true to yourself, appreciating other people and cultures, and caring for the environment. Helping others, contributing to the community, and being a good citizen. SPW encourages students to find joy and enlightenment in their education, giving them the best opportunity to leave school feeling happy, confident, and ready to face the world ahead. We believe that a child is born with an intuitive sense of wonder and happiness at being alive, and a school’s most important job is to nurture and foster that daily sense of delight. At the same time, we have a solemn responsibility to reveal the accumulated experiences we have gained – how the world works, how change creates opportunity, and how diversity adds richness. Most importantly, we want our students to understand how the values of tolerance, compassion, and respect underpin our relationships. SPW is built around the values and traditions of the Anglican Church. The fundamental Christian teaching “love God and love your neighbor” underpins the school's philosophy and programs. The values and beliefs of our church are integrated across the teaching curriculum, and there is a weekly service held in the Chapel. SPW is part of the Anglican Parish of Glenelg, and as the original Parish School, we proudly participate in parish activities. View full school

The School's religious, spiritual, and liturgical life is central to its mission. It is enacted in the Chapel, in the classroom, on the stage, or the sporting field, in social activities, or while traveling to and from the School. Guildford Grammar School promotes a Christian ethos in an Anglican tradition that is inclusive, ecumenical, and liturgical, thereby recognizing a thoughtful, enquiring, and proper place for the Bible, Tradition, and Reason, adequately exercised, in informing Christian discipleship and for the building up of the Kingdom of God. In so much as the Chapel is the most striking building of the School, it symbolizes the importance the school places upon the Christian experience's centrality lived out in the Anglican tradition within the School. The School Chapel is a quiet place in the School: it is a place of prayer and reflection for all school community members. It proclaims a message that God is present among his people that Jesus is alive and is ready to answer a prayer that the Holy Spirit calls us to love and to understand with each other. The Eucharist is at the heart of its worship and proclaims that in broken bread and shared wine, we seek to reflect Christ's self-giving love. While the School welcomes those from all beliefs and none, it is expected that all members will live a life reflective in word and deed of the example of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Saviour. To that end, the School seeks to respond to human need with loving service, to be non-judgmental and inclusive. All students are required to attend Chapel services, congregational singing, and participate in the Christian and religious education classes of the School. View full school
