Welcome to the Secondary School section of our website.  There is so much to learn about St Andrew's, please click here to see an overview of our wonderful Secondary School.

Every student wants to enjoy their time at school and though they won't always admit it, they want to learn more about themselves and the world around them. This can only come about if students have positive relationships with the staff and are encouraged to extend themselves without fear of failure.

Vibrant and Friendly
The Secondary Schooling provides a vibrant, friendly environment where students are provided with development appropriate opportunities and experiences that encourage personal development and positive growth.

In the Middle Years (Years 7 to 9) students explore who they are and how they can develop and change.

In the Senior Years (Years 10 to 12) students are encouraged to investigate how they fit into their world and how their influence can bring about change that can affect the global village.

Belonging
Each student belongs to one of four houses where they and their peers will have strong relations with a Head of House and other House staff. These relationships are constant and integral in a student's journey from Year 7 to Year 12 and underpin the Academic, Sporting, Cultural and Musical integrity and rigor that is provided at St Andrew's Anglican College.

We look forward to helping you become the very best you can be.

Welcome to the new school year. I am very excited about the wonderful experiences that the staff have planned for the students in 2013 and I look forward to all our students making the most of these opportunities.

The beginning of any school year can be an overwhelming experience for any student let alone any new student to the College. I would like to thank Mrs Lisa Martoo and the Heads of House for their work in minimising the trepidation that our new students feel. Thank you also to the many buddies of our new students and indeed to all the staff for the Academic Care shown to all our students in the first two weeks.

 

As the College continues to grow both in student numbers and in facilities it is necessary to occasionally redefine and add roles and responsibilities to the staffing structure in the Secondary School.

 

I have outlined below the main staff who may be relevant to the needs of students and parents. I have listed their names, positions, responsibilities and contact details as relevant to all students.

 

Please feel free to contact any staff member as you deem necessary so as we can continue with ensuring that we cater to each and every student’s needs so as they can achieve their personal best.

 

I look forward to meeting you all throughout the year and wish all students a smooth and vibrant start to their schooling year.

 

Kind regards,

Mr Brad Bowen

Head of Secondary
