Banyule Primary School Competitors

Ballarat and Queen’s Anglican Grammar School fosters the pursuit of excellence by providing its students with a broad liberal education of the highest quality, in the Anglican tradition. The School is situated on an extensive parkland campus near Lake Wendouree and hosts a flourishing community of learners, boys and girls, attending Ballarat Grammar. Over 200 students live in family-oriented boarding houses. The School’s focus on the education of the whole person, and engagement with wider communities, locally and globally, develops thriving, happy, well-grounded individuals intent on establishing their pathway in the world. The youngest will enter our new purpose-built Centre for Early Education at age 3. Year 7, at the commencement of secondary schooling, is the other major entry point, and boarders enter in Years 7 – 11. In the Anglican tradition, positive relationships underpin the growth of academic, emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing within a highly-developed pastoral care program. Breadth of endeavour is important, and high-achieving students are active in academic extension pursuits, as well as in music and performing arts, sports, outdoor education, and community service.
