The school is built on proud and honourable traditions, having been founded exactly 90 years ago by founders who were both visionary and far-sighted in aspiring to build a centre of excellence which would provide for and care for everyone within its community. And what a vibrant and truly internationally diverse school St George’s is; with students from no less than 60 nationalities coming together to form a uniquely diverse and inspiring community of young people. The exciting Boarding and Day school programs blend together as one and the school continues to be visionary in its goals and achievements.
All schools need to be academically outstanding and successful but they should also provide a full and total experience in ensuring that artistic, sporting and social opportunities are high on their agenda and fully provided for and integrated within their curriculum.
Students need to be fully equipped to be successful in their chosen careers but, additionally, they need to be taught the skills which enable them to become compassionate and caring members of their communities.
It is education as a full and holistic experience which drives and excites me and I aspire to ensure that our students look back at their time at St George’s as numbering amongst the happiest and most fulfilling days of their lives.
Of course the success of any school is built on partnerships. So, it is the partnerships that we value and enjoy between our students, staff, parents and the local community that we must continue to build upon and must succeed on all levels, in order that the full potential of the school can be realised.
