THE SCHOOL HISTORY Mathew Blagden Hale, the first Anglican Bishop of Perth, founded the Bishop’s Collegiate School (Hale School) in 1858. It first opened its doors on 28 June with an enrolment of 22 pupils. The first student to arrive, 11 year-old Laurence Eliot, had taken three days to ride his horse from Bunbury. The little colony was less than 30 years old and was struggling for survival, and Bishop Hale received no government support for his school. It began on the sandy track that was St Georges Terrace and after occupying temporary premises for a short time, moved into The Cloisters. The new school attracted a number of boarders as well as day boys, many of whom later became prominent citizens in the colony - Laurence Eliot became Colonial Secretary, John Forrest - the first Premier of the state, Alexander Forrest - an early Mayor of Perth and Stephen Parker, the Chief Justice of Western Australia. WELCOME TO HALE SCHOOL But the economy of the colony remained in a perilous state and the Bishop’s Collegiate School was finally forced to close in 1872.

  • School Fees Report 2019 Introduction
    School Fees Report 2019 Introduction With one in three Australian families sending their child to a non- Government school, private school fees are a huge investment for parents. Edstart’s School Fees Report helps you understand the trends in private school fees across the country. This year’s report analysed fees from over 300 schools, covering tuition, compulsory additional fees and boarding fees. Overall Trends Private school fees across Australia have risen by an average of 3.1% in 2019, which is slightly down from 3.2% last year. While almost 9% of schools reduced their fees or had no fee change, we found that over 84% of schools increased their fees by more than the current inflation rate of 1.8%*. Fee inflation also continued to outpace the average wage growth rate of 2.2%. While there was a small drop in school fee inflation this year, state-based fee analysis showed significant geographic variances. NSW and Victoria continued to lead the way with the highest average school fees and smallest percentage of schools where fees remained the same or were reduced. Western Australia saw the highest percentage of schools that did not raise their fees in 2019 and the lowest average increase in fees at merely 1.58%. On the other hand, ACT showed the highest fee increase of 5.07%. These statewide trends are caused by some of the key themes that are explained further below. A Tale of Three Parts While overall school fee trends were consistent with prior years, 2019 has generated the largest variety of school fee changes in many years.

  • The History of Hale School and Its Old Boys
    Duty The History of Hale School and its Old Boys ‘…who can deny that to Bishop Hale must be given the credit of being something more than the founder of what is now Hale School. He is the founder of secondary education in this State; he has urged parents to value wisdom and knowledge above wealth, and slowly the lesson has been learned. Steadily there grew up a generation in whose minds the truth of Hale’s teaching had taken root, and the tradition thus implanted with so much toil and sacrifice has been built upon ever since’ No school or its graduates have played as prominent and integral role in the governance and development of Western Australia as Hale School and its Old Boys. Since its establishment over 150 years ago, Hale School has produced six Premiers, an Acting Prime Minister, numerous recipients of the Orders of Australia, 13 Rhodes Scholars and influential pioneers of the State’s pastoralist, forestry and iron ore industries. Old Boys, too, have become prominent musicians, artists, sculptors, illustrators, novelists and poets; they have become leading scientists, industrialists and businessmen. They have been recognised as distinguished public servants. They have served their country and been awarded the Victoria Cross, Distinguished Service Orders, Military Crosses and Distinguished Flying Crosses. They have represented the state and the country in sport at Olympic, national and state representative level. In other words, they have consistently upheld Hale School’s long standing reputation of producing young men determined to excel, to lead and, above all, to implement the School’s motto and fulfil their duty to their mates, their families and to the community.

The Society doe' "01 hold itself r~sp(ms;ble for statements made or opi"ions e:rprfSsed by "uthors of the papers published in this Journal BISHOP HALE AND SECONDARY EDUCATION [By MRS. E. D. COWAN, O.B.E.] [Read before the Society. June 27, 1930] I must preface this paper by saying that its scope is necessarily very limited. It is not possible in it to give a biographical sketch of our first Anglican Bishop, Matthew Blagden Hale, who expended thought, money and time in stabilising, by endowing liberally from his own means, the Church of E'ngland in this Colony; neither can I give an account fully of the practical interest taken by him in education generhlly. as well as that of the aborigines. A detailed paper of that description must be left to the able pen of Canon Burton (our chairman here to-night) or to some research student of the f"ture. I can deal with only one phase of the Bishop's work here-his college-and his interest in furthering secondary education. It is difficult, in a paper such as this, to do justice to the fine Christian ideals evident throughout the life of the late Right Reverend Matthew Blagden Hale, the first Anglican Bishop of Western Australia, who was beloved and appreciated by not only his personal friends, but by the community as a whole. It was no light task he undertook, that of overseeing and helping to evolve and foster the ideals of Christianity in the schools of the State and of founding its first secondary school for boys.
