For almost 150 years, PLC has been at the forefront of girls’ education. We strongly believe in inspiring our students to follow their passions, explore every opportunity and achieve to the very best of their abilities.

Nurtured within a strong Christian community, our girls care and respect one another, acquiring the skills and selfdiscipline they need to be global citizens with an informed understanding of other cultures and the world around them.

At PLC our focus is on the development of the whole student. Our holistic wellbeing program supports each girl’s academic, emotional, social, creative, physical and spiritual wellbeing. Personal achievement across all areas of ability and endeavour are carefully nurtured and celebrated as part of their individual learning journey.

Located on 16-hectares of magnificent park-like gardens, students from ELC to Year 12 and Boarding have unbounded space to live, work and play. Our beautiful natural surroundings help stimulate their learning and offers ample space for personal exploration, quiet reflection and active physical engagement.

We encourage families to visit during one of our many School Tours and see first-hand what sets us apart and discover why your daughter will benefit from a life-changing educational experience at PLC.
