St Leonard’s College is one of Australia’s oldest and most respected coeducational, independent schools. The facilities at St Leonard’s College provide a balanced blend of historic buildings filled with character and charm, and state-of-the-art facilities to support innovative teaching practices. Girls and boys can complete their entire education from pre-school to year 12 at the one campus in Brighton, giving all students a chance to be the best they can be, and importantly, a chance to be themselves.

St Leonard’s is a recognised long-term leader in coeducational learning, and our curriculum draws on the best education practices from around the world. It promotes critical thinking in students, helps them identify their interests and strengths and encourages them to take charge of their academic and personal development.

  • Our Early Learning Centre (ELC) for pre-schoolers is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, based on respect, responsibility and community.
     
  • At our Junior School, (McMillan House), we build strong learning foundations in girls and boys aged from 3 years-old to year 4. We also offer the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) to early primary students.
     
  • Our Middle School programs are carefully designed to be imaginative, challenging and engaging for students in years 5 to 9. Our focus here is on building independence, initiative and teamwork through diverse learning methods, and in many different settings.
     
  • Upper School students, from year 10 to year 12, choose from broad study options, including the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP). Languages are important across the entire curriculum of St Leonard’s and we teach five—Japanese, French, German, Indonesian and Spanish.
Our reputation rests not just on the outstanding academic achievements of students but also on our commitment to their long-term futures.

St Leonard’s College promotes ‘depth and breadth’ learning, with a focus on the fundamentals, and a philosophy of providing an education for life. We work with students every day to foster their physical, emotional and social development so they build positive life habits, strategies and skills that help them succeed in the years beyond school.

As a Uniting Church school, St Leonard’s College promotes the Christian and community values of respect, tolerance and inclusion. Our community is strengthened by people of different faiths and non-faith beliefs who share our values and add to the richness of school life.
Our modern facilities include well-resourced libraries, music and art centres, multi-purpose halls and sporting facilities such as the Hawkes Sports Centre with pool, aerobics room and weights room. We also have a new Upper School building with leading technologies and resources to help students achieve in their senior years and a dedicated outdoor environmental centre, Camp Ibis, located on the Gippsland Lakes.
A broad academic curriculum is offered across all age groups. At senior level, students can choose to complete the VCE or International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. Subjects available include Mathematics, Science, Languages (French, Japanese, Indonesian, German and Spanish), English, Music, Information and Communications Technology, and a wide range of Humanities, Social Science and Commerce subjects. The College is also accredited to offer the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme.
The majority of traditional sports and outdoor activities are available at St Leonard’s College along with skiing, snowboarding, surfing, equestrian, sailing, golf and surf lifesaving. The College takes part in mid-week, inter-school sports competitions through the Association of Coeducational Schools, leaving weekends free for family activities, other events and local community sports teams.

St Leonard’s College offers a diverse range of cocurricular activities including debating, drama, choir, orchestra, photography, video production and bushwalking. Visual and performing arts activities are always highlights of the College calendar.
Our strong pastoral care program assists students to become successful lifelong learners. We help young people develop the confidence and emotional resilience to take advantage of life’s opportunities and overcome its challenges. A vibrant peer support program also operates at the College.
