The curriculum at Orana provides a solid foundation in academic subjects such as English, Mathematics, Science, Geography and History, as well as a dedicated programme of Technology, the Arts and Health and Physical Education. Founded in 1981 and set within unique and natural surroundings, Orana now has 640 students enrolled from Pre-school to Year 12 and is an independent, co-educational and non-denominational school located in Weston, Canberra.
