Guildford Grammar School 2016 Annual Report 2018 ANNUAL REPORT

Located on the leafy banks of the Swan River, is a co-educational Anglican, independent day and boarding school where girls and boys from Kindergarten to Year 12 are equipped to live a life of purpose.

Our purpose:

Inspiring students to achieve personal excellence and to be outstanding citizens who work to create a just, loving and peaceful society.

As one of ’s oldest independent schools, Guildford Grammar School has a proud heritage of providing an outstanding education. The School was formed in 1896, when pastoralist and Parliamentarian Charles Harper saw the critical need for better education as a way to transform young lives.

We remain committed to our founding vision and focused on providing an education that will equip our students for life in the modern world. We know that the education landscape is continuously changing to fully prepare students for tomorrow. Children of today face a very different future to that of their predecessors. Our education philosophy is future-focused and we aim to instil boys and girls with the necessary skills for tomorrow.

At Guildford Grammar School, students will learn to become independent thinkers, problem solvers and innovators. They will develop a thirst for knowledge so that they will continue to learn throughout their life. In our rapidly changing world students need the skills to adapt and grow.

We are blessed with truly inspirational surroundings. Our spacious campus, located on almost 100 hectares of land on the banks of the Swan River, provides a magnificent backdrop for learning. In addition to the standard curriculum, our location and available land allows for a diverse range of sporting activities, with our main playing fields and rowing shed located on campus.

Guildford Grammar School provides extraordinary opportunities that prepare boys and girls for a bright future.
