The School was opened in 1894 by the Community of the Sisters of the Church, pioneering English women who sailed to a settlement they knew little about on the other side of the world. They arrived with very few possessions, but what they brought to our shores was priceless: a vision for quality girls’ education.
It was managed by the Community of the Sisters of the Church until 1986 when a change in vocation within the Community resulted in the Sisters creating a different governance model and gifting the School to a Board of Governors.
International Students: Adelaide is often ranked among the world’s safest and most liveable cities, boasting high quality healthcare, housing and a wonderful climate. It is also globally recognised as a leader in education, making it a premier destination for international students.
