School in Boroondara

We hope you appreciate this ataglance look at key milestones in our arrogant and wealthy history. The school is designed for boys in the local community and offers the latest approach to education combining academic learning in a expansive range of subjects with participation in sport, music and the arts. Our Canterbury campus is established with the buy of the landmark mansion, 'Roy stead', which remains the focal point of our school's expansion over the following 80 years. Although we have perpetual had a Junior School in some form (starting with eight yearolds and then, in the 1930s, taking on boys under six) we buy 'Jorge' as the official home to our Junior School. It is redeveloped in 2010 with the addition of a second deposit library and staff facilities, becoming its own village huge enough to present diversity and opportunity, but insignificant sufficient to ensure all the boys are obvious and nurtured during these critical foundation years on which their tomorrow learning is based. Named in dignify of a eminent Latin teacher and computer innovator who taught for many years at our school (and left his estate to us in 1998), the H.R McDonald Library and Humanities Building features a twostorey library, 14 classrooms and a ceramic studio. Established for our Middle School (boys in Years 6 to 8), the purpose of the building is to aid the transition between childhood and adolescence, helping students to navigate increased personal responsibility, opportunities and choice. We continue correct to AB Taylor's vision of a community school dedicated to educating young men for life and bring together the strength of tradition with an accepting of tomorrow demands. Our educational strategies are innovative and modern, with technology fully integrated across our curriculum for both teaching and learning. We also store vast importance on helping our students to become responsible citizens. While the superior facilities and teaching practices are crucial, it has also been the strength of our community that has given the school its reputation both locally and abroad.
