Lowther Hall Anglican Grammar School

Lowther Hall has a reputation for providing a well-rounded education for girls in an intimate environment of 800 students from Kindergarten to Year 12. We are a diverse, open-entry school where students are known and well catered for from their very first day.

We pride ourselves on offering academic programs which support and challenge each student to achieve her best, and we seek to assist girls to understand a wide range of academic disciplines and co-curricular pursuits. At Lowther Hall, we see our role as broader than the provision of a leading edge curriculum. We seek to be a school that educates the whole person, helping each girl to develop personal qualities and values that will equip her for a happy and successful adult life. All of our teachers, support staff and student leaders work towards realising this goal of providing a holistic educational experience for every girl.

Within our inclusive, caring school community, we support our girls to achieve academic excellence while at the same time developing a set of values that will help them to live full, happy and successful lives beyond the school gates. We value:

• Learning for all members of our community and especially for young women.
• Respectful relationships which give rise to everyone having a voice.
• Living the School motto, non nobis solum, through a proactive demonstration of social responsibility.
• Inclusivity, diversity and acceptance of difference within our girls’ school context.
• A physically, emotionally and socially safe environment which fosters health and wellbeing.
• Individuals working together for a common good.
• The pursuit of excellence through effort.
• A broad curriculum which promotes the recognition of diverse interests and strengths.
• Local, national and global engagement.
• Leadership that aligns with our School values and the development of such leadership in students and staff.
• A physical environment which is sustainable and has both aesthetic and functional value.
• An orientation towards the future which embraces our Anglican context, our traditions and our past.

The Lowther Hall mission and vision statements articulate the School’s overarching goals. These statements inform our approach to everything that happens at Lowther Hall and also underpin our teaching and learning programs. Lowther Hall is an inclusive learning community, founded on Christian values, engaged in educating the whole person for the whole of life.

Our Vision is that every girl will leave Lowther Hall with the knowledge, skills and personal qualities needed to make a positive and rewarding contribution to the world beyond school. Chosen when the school was founded in 1920, the School's motto, Non Nobis Solum (not for ourselves alone) encapsulates the balance we hope each girl will find in life, so that she is able to both care for herself and for others too.
