Ivanhoe Girls’ Grammar School

Principal Deborah Priest

An experienced educator who commenced at the school in 2018, Dr Priest is passionate about developing young women as individuals and preparing them to take their place as outstanding leaders in our community and on the global stage. 123 Marshall Street, Ivanhoe VIC 3079

Ivanhoe Girls’ Grammar School is a forward-thinking community of learners who are thoughtful in their choices and brave in their actions.

Ivanhoe Girls’ is an open-entry school with more than 850 students (from ELC to Year 12). This means that Ivanhoe Girls’ is small enough to focus on each student as an individual learner, yet large enough to be able to offer a broad range of subject and co-curricular choices.

The school has a special culture that is spoken about by parents, students and staff. There is a warmth, a friendliness that is hard to describe but experienced by those who walk through the gardens and become a part of the school family.

Students are encouraged to develop a broad range of thinking and learning skills and strategies, and each girl is encouraged to achieve academic excellence, as well as develop leadership skills and teamwork in a supportive and stimulating environment. Students also have the benefit of developing resilience and self-esteem in an environment that encourages respect for the individual, together with an understanding of others.

Our students are evidence of what we do well. Articulate, courageous, critical thinkers who are generous of spirit, have a life-long love of learning, and who have a voice and use it to create change. Because at the end of the day, Our Girls Speak For Themselves.
