PRIN CIPAL \ J O NATHAN WALTER

Carey Baptist Grammar School is a Christian independent co-educational school from Early Learning to Year 12. Carey works in partnership with families to develop wise, independent, motivated young people who are inspired and equipped to create positive change.

As one of Australia’s leading schools, Carey maintains an even gender balance, fostering the development of confidence, communication skills and self-esteem in both girls and boys. Students participate in community service; study different cultures, religions and beliefs; learn the importance of human rights; and are encouraged to respect and appreciate the world beyond their own experience.

Recruiting and developing highly professional teaching and support staff is of great importance to us. Carey is known for being innovative, progressive and leading the way in best practice teaching and learning, supporting strong academic results and personal development for each student. Carey’s philosophy of student-centred learning requires students to be active, responsible participants in their own learning, with the teacher working as a mentor, facilitator and guide.

Carey students are curious, ambitious and engaged global citizens. We build on their individual qualities to develop young women and men who flourish and can lead and serve with courage, compassion and intelligence.

CURRICULUM CO-CURRICULAR

Carey provides a curriculum to challenge, encourage and stimulate each student. We offer IB and VCE in Senior School; more than 50 elective subjects in Middle School; and an enriching, collaborative, inquiry-based approach at Junior School. We maintain a balance with study, offering AGPS and APS sports, music, drama, yoga, dance, media, bikes, chess, or First Aid – there is something for each individual. These activities foster creativity, spirit, leadership and teamwork.

COMMUNITY WELLBEING

Carey students are engaged members of their local, national and global communities. From ELC to Year 12, students are encouraged and challenged to think beyond their circumstances and to help others, facilitated by our social justice focus. Our award-winning wellbeing program is holistic, multidisciplinary and fully integrated into the curriculum to enable students to be at their best. All staff are responsible for student wellbeing and are trained in effective pastoral care.
