“A Saint Kentigern education is a choice where academia, art, physicality and competition meet the learning needs of boys in Years 0–8. We develop young men to respect themselves, their origins, and to take their place with pride in any community they choose.”

Peter Cassie

Every student we teach has innate abilities. Our role and responsibility is to provide an environment where these are identified, nurtured and developed. We encourage engagement and personal performance in all our boys do. Via a progressive, innovative educational setting where competition and physicality are encouraged, excellence is achieved, and success is acknowledged. ‘Through striving for quality in all that they do, and realising that they can achieve at a high level – sees our boys reach their potential.’

True to the Saint Kentigern Trust’s founding values, we provide a caring and supportive environment where boys can explore what it means to be boys. These values will flow into their everyday lives, developing young men who respect who they are, where they come from, and how to take their place, with pride, in any community they choose. We want our boys, your sons, to become global citizens and future leaders of their communities, fully prepared and confident, with the necessary resilience to meet the challenges they will face in a rapidly changing world. We are fortunate to have a dedicated faculty committed to supporting and encouraging your son to reach his potential in all aspects of his development.

I invite you to visit us to view our excellent facilities and to experience the difference we can make, for yourself.

I look forward to welcoming you.

Fides Servanda Est.
