Geelong Grammar School

Welcome to Geelong Grammar School, a pioneering institution located at 23 Jackson Street, Toorak, Australia. Established in 1855, we are proud to provide exceptional learning opportunities that are built on real-world experiences and genuine human connections. Our aim is to offer a well-rounded, modern education that prepares young people for the adventures and challenges of the future.

At Geelong Grammar, we believe in the power of Adventure Education, Positive Education, and Creative Education. These three pillars form the foundation of our approach to providing an exceptional education. We are dedicated to nurturing the holistic development of our students, focusing on their social-emotional, ethical, and physical growth, alongside delivering a high-quality academic education.

Our vibrant school offers seamless and integrated pathways for students from Early Learning to Year 12, across four specialist campuses. Our warm and nurturing day school, Bostock House, is located in the leafy suburb of Newtown in Geelong. This community is known for its compassion, love, and support for each individual.

In the heart of Toorak, Melbourne, you will find our inspiring day campus. Here, our dedicated teachers act as great friends, nurturing every aspect of each student's growth. Our renowned boarding and day campus in Corio is situated on a spacious and picturesque 230-hectare estate. This close-knit community provides unwavering support for academic, sporting, and co-curricular ambitions.

For those seeking a boarding experience, our full residential campus is nestled in the foothills of Mt Timbertop in the Victorian High Country. Timbertop offers a transformative experience where students can discover their true selves and forge lifelong connections with others who bring out the best in them.

Geelong Grammar is home to students from diverse backgrounds, including rural, regional, metropolitan, and international students. This rich diversity cultivates open-mindedness, global-mindedness, and tolerance among our students, fostering friendships and connections that last a lifetime.

Families choose Geelong Grammar for an Exceptional Education, one that is academically rigorous, supported by expert staff, and abundant in innovative, creative, and adventurous programs. As an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School since 1997, we offer the Primary Years Programme (ages 3 to 12) across all our Primary Campuses and provide the Diploma Programme (DP) in combination with the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) as a tertiary pathway for students in Year 11 and Year 12.

One of the unique aspects of Geelong Grammar is that everyone has a story. Whether you're from Geelong or Thailand, our community celebrates diversity, recognizing that no one is a set model. We believe in the power of individuality and encourage each student to embrace their unique journey.

We are proud to announce that nominations for the Geelong Grammar School Medal for Service to Society, to be presented in 2024, are now open. Additionally, we congratulate the Class of 2022 on their outstanding academic achievements.

At GGS, we acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands used by the School, including the Wadawurrung, Wurundjeri, and Taungurung people. We pay our respects to their Elders, past, present, and emerging. We are deeply committed to providing a supportive environment that empowers Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people in our care to be successful, recognizing that education is the vehicle to inspire positive change.
