Overview:

Since its first year of operation in 1998, the school has grown to spread over two campuses in Kingston. It has a total enrolment of over 820 students as well as an additional 650 students being educated through its school of Distance Education. The facilities also include a fully-accredited Early Learning Centre which provides learning programs for children from 15 months old. Since commencing with just a few students and teachers in their first year, Groves now offers a comprehensive range of courses to students from Prep to Year 12. This sees students graduating each year to go on to tertiary study, along with students who move directly out of their school-based apprenticeships and traineeships and into the workforce.
