Girton Grammar School in Bendigo, Australia, is a non-selective independent school for boys and girls catering for around 1,200 students from Prep to Year 12 in a vibrant and supportive environment. With an excellent academic record, the school prides itself on supporting students to achieve above accepted academic benchmarks and on creating an educational experience that stays with students for a lifetime. The School has adopted a social and emotional learning approach based on the proven premise that how you feel determines how you learn. Girton is the first Australian school to adopt Yale University's internationally renowned "RULER" Approach, making the School a national leader in the explicit teaching and development of emotional intelligence in all students and staff. Dovetailing with the nurturing of emotional literacy is an exceptional model of student wellbeing that is the cornerstone of Girton Grammar School's values. The school's philosophy is that proper care and education of young people starts with every student having a sense of belonging within the larger school community. The House system fosters this, and with more than 70 co-curricular activities on offer in sport, drama, music, hobbies, personal development and community service, every student can follow their passions and flourish.
