We encourage you to read this guide to explore the outstanding educational opportunities being offered by our local advertisers in the Canberra region in 2023 and beyond …
Canberra Christian School: Secure and nurturing environment
Our Christian school provides tailored education for your child in Mawson ACT. Our campus offers an Early Learning Centre (with Long Day Care), Pre-School and Primary School with wonderful High School opportunities. We have approximately 200 students enrolled, which makes us a small school, but we are a part of a larger network of 50 Australian schools with over 15,000 students enrolled.
The foundation of our approach to educating every child is our secure and nurturing school environment. We create this environment through appreciation for individual needs, respect for the children in our care, and support for their values and opinions. Through this approach, we help each child to reach their full potential whilst developing self-esteem and an appreciation for the needs of others.
We employ the government developed Australian Curriculum, however, our staff recognise the individuality of each child’s learning needs and we offer a program designed to maximise each student’s potential in all areas of their learning. Children are placed on levels of work based on achievement outcomes rather than chronological age, resulting in satisfaction and challenge being an integral part of the child’s learning program. Because of our school size, each teacher can monitor each child and get to know their personality, growth and development needs.
All members of Canberra Christian School embrace and celebrate the diversity of our local community. We believe in working together with our families and our community to provide the best possible education for our children. We provide an extensive range of enriching activities including excursions, overnight camps, as well as in-school workshops.

St Edmund’s College: A School of Opportunity
St Edmund’s College Canberra, a Catholic School in the Edmund Rice Tradition, has been educating boys from Year 4 to Year 12 for 69 years. Since 1954, the College has seen over 11,000 boys grow into exceptional young men, with generations of families passing through the halls.
When boys attend St Edmund’s, they and their families become a part of the vibrant and diverse community, creating connections and partnerships that start in the classroom and extend beyond the school grounds.
We deliver a holistic Catholic education for boys, which incorporates academic, faith, sporting, and extra-curricular pursuits. We believe in preparing boys for life, helping them focus on their strengths and better themselves as individuals in the years they spend at the College.
In that spirit, we are excited to continue our Eddies Education Partnership Program, where we, the College, collaborate with community organisations to enhance and broaden the education of our students. The Partnership Program works to improve student engagement, improve academic outcomes for students, enhance the social wellbeing of students, and broaden vocational options and skills.
The College is partnered with the University of Canberra (UC) through the new St Edmund’s College Sports Academy. We are thrilled that UC shares our holistic view of education, knowing that for many young men, learning should not only be reduced to a number. This provides an opportunity for our students to consider a sports-focused pathway that offers direct, non-ATAR entry to a number of undergraduate courses at UC.
Another exciting partnership is with the Canberra Raiders through our Sports Science program. The Raiders partnership will provide a direct connection between St Edmund’s College and the Canberra Raiders for students playing Rugby League, supporting these students at a high level, both academically and physically.
A third partnership with the Hyatt Hotel in Canberra allows our Hospitality students to immerse themselves in authentic experiences of the Hospitality industry, engage in real work opportunities, build their professional network, and be mentored and coached by experts in the Hospitality field as they develop their skills and competencies.
Finally, St Edmund’s College is proud to formalise a partnership with Accelerate Physiotherapy. Accelerate Physiotherapy will work jointly with our Co-curricular and senior Talented Sports Programs to provide elite level athlete screening, assist in the injury and rehabilitation of student-athletes, and help develop athlete knowledge of content studied in senior courses.
We are building these partnerships because boys need a sense of empowerment and engagement at school with many opportunities in order to succeed. We offer an extensive choice of subjects, a wide variety of co-curricular options, both sporting and cultural, and the opportunity to engage with the community through social justice programs. Relevance is particularly important to boys’ learning and the pedagogy in our curriculum continually evolves to meet changing academic, career and trade opportunities.
We encourage each student’s personal development and support each boy to help them achieve their personal best. Students develop the skill of teamwork, learn the art of winning and losing gracefully, build the understanding that everything improves through practice, and are shown how to focus and work towards personal goals.

Canberra Grammar School – Ready for the World
Within the blossoming flora of Red Hill, spread across a vibrant 22 hectares, is a home away from home; Canberra Grammar School has been a committed family environment for our boarding community since 1929. We are deeply proud of our heritage and fuelled with renewed energy for our future as we provide a uniquely warm and welcoming educational experience for our students.
As an independent Anglican School, we respect and nurture all students as individuals. We seek to inspire, support, and celebrate the efforts of all in realising their intellectual, spiritual, cultural, social, and physical aspirations within a community guided by Christian values.
Building on the professional expertise of its staff, the commitment of its community and the resources of the nation’s capital, CGS caters to a diverse range of learners and strives to be the most dynamic and distinctive centre of learning in Australia.
Canberra Grammar School is the only co-ed boarding school in the ACT, with a capacity for over 140 boarding placements at full enrolment. The Boarding Community is a tight-knit and diverse mixture of local, regional and international students. Our boarders live in a friendly and welcoming environment, with the convenience of being on campus with access to the resources of the School and Australia’s best-kept secret – our national capital! The city of Canberra and its nearby regions offer all the opportunities of a major city and Australia’s natural environment but with the ease and safety that comes with its smaller size.
With 24-hour, seven-days-a-week support from an incredible team of dedicated and caring professionals led by the Heads of Boarding, CGS offers a unique and valuable educational experience that goes beyond the ordinary. It provides an ideal environment for academic excellence, community building, and a global perspective. Our pastoral care staff lead a welcoming and familial community, ensuring our boarders have access to wellbeing and personal development assistance, targeted academic support structures, diverse social and leisure opportunities, school-based transport, and on-site medical support.
We offer a rigorous academic programme, offering a range of courses from traditional academic subjects to specialised programmes like art, music, and athletics. At CGS, smaller class sizes combined with dedicated teachers and a culture of intellectual curiosity are essential to fostering an ideal learning environment for students. We are committed to nurturing the innate intellectual curiosity of our students by encouraging them to think critically, express themselves creatively, and develop a love of lifelong learning. One component of this is offering our students the choice between studying the New South Wales Higher School Certificate (HSC) curriculum or the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), encouraging and guiding them in whichever choice they make.
Beyond academic excellence, CGS fosters community building. Living and learning in a residential setting creates a unique and supportive environment that nurtures the development of strong bonds between students and mentors. We strongly emphasise inclusivity, respect, and empathy, providing a safe and nurturing environment where all students can thrive. Our students develop essential teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills by taking leadership roles and contributing to their communities. These skills prepare them for life beyond the classroom and are invaluable in any field they pursue.
Our students have an opportunity for personal growth, leadership development, and global engagement. With diverse student populations and international exchange programmes, our students have a robust opportunity to understand other cultures deeply, discuss global issues and develop the skills and competencies needed to succeed in an interconnected world.
Canberra Grammar School strives to develop all our students to be curious, creative, confident, and compassionate citizens of the world. By creating a home away from home for our boarders and welcoming all students and families into a broader community here in the nation’s capital – we are ready for the world!

MacKillop celebrates 25 years of excellence in education
The start of the 2023 academic year has marked 25 years since the opening of St Mary MacKillop College in Canberra’s Tuggeranong Valley.
The College, which is based over two campuses in Wanniassa and Isabella Plains, first opened its doors in 1998 following the amalgamation of Padua High School and St Peter’s College.
Over that time, MacKillop has gone from strength to strength and is now Canberra’s largest secondary school, providing all kinds of students – who possess a range of talents, interests, and backgrounds – with a catholic, co-ed pathway for Years 7 to 12.
MacKillop has all the advantages a large school can provide: lots of different people to be friendly with, a wide range of curriculum options, modern facilities, extensive resources, great teachers, special programs, and a huge range of sport and co-curricular choices.
From day to day, however, the two-campus structure means students enjoy a learning environment where they are known, understood, and can navigate their way through the adolescent years with encouragement and support.
MacKillop’s Principal, Mr Michael Lee, said the College has always aimed to be a ‘catholic school for all’.
“A lot has changed at MacKillop over 25 years but the spirit has not and we continue to be a catholic school for everybody,” Mr Lee said.
“The College’s strengths over the first 25 years have been our community, the opportunities for each and every student, and the quality of our teachers – these are the things MacKillop students are likely to tell you about when you ask them about their school.”
St Mary MacKillop College is now accepting enrolments for the 2024 school year and will hold a range of information sessions in May. For information about these events and the College in general, visit www.mackillop.act.edu.au.
