St Aidan's Anglican Girls School

St Aidan's is a Prep to Year 12 Anglican day school for girls, with a co-educational Kindergarten. Located in Corinda, with a population of approximately 900 students, reflecting our belief that students experience many benefits in a smaller school.

St Aidan’s was established in 1929 by the Sisters of the Society of the Sacred Advent – an order of Anglican sisters committed to serving God through nurturing and serving young women.

On day one, Sister Elisabeth was Sister-in-Charge at St Margaret’s, and Mrs Christine Hartland was Headmistress at St Aidan’s. They both upheld the view that education for girls needed to equip them for life. To this day, the school’s mission remains the same: to encourage confidence and success in students through pursuit of their academic, sporting, cultural and community pursuits within a caring environment.

Our vision is, St Aidan's nurtures each student's personal aspirations within a vibrant learner-centred community.

Our mission is, St Aidan's strives to provide excellence in education, in a caring, friendly environment, where each individual, nurtured and shaped by the values of the Christian Faith, has the opportunity to achieve her full potential and to develop a passion for life and for learning.

Our focus is to develop and promote authentic, caring, confident, creative and connected women who value reason, imagination, truth, compassion and responsibility.

The size of our school enables us to know girls well and for them to feel that they are valued and able to develop strong networks and connections within our community. Our students from Kindergarten to Year 12 have the opportunity to study challenging and rigorous academic programs in a vibrant community of learning. Excellence in teaching, with an emphasis on student leadership and wellbeing supports every learner at St Aidan’s to aspire to achieve their personal best.
