Breaking Ground

In 1984, St Andrew’s Cathedral School bought its first ever piece of land in the rural Southern Highlands. For a school in the middle of the CBD in a multi-story tower this represented a new way to learn – and it was where Outdoor Education programme for our School would take its first early steps and grow into the robust, inspiring programme it is today.  

A new inter-disciplinary initiative has been introduced in the Secondary School that focuses on improving and expanding literacy skills for students.

In Humanities classrooms throughout the Secondary School, relevant current affairs and politics are often investigated and discussed as case studies with students; we looked at one recent example – the Voice to Parliament – to discover how it is being introduced and explored by students.

Over much of its 137-year history, St Andrew’s Cathedral School students have played on the roofs of office buildings. This year, the community got together to raise funds to update and renovate their beloved rooftop into an exciting learning and recreation space.
