Woodleigh School

At Woodleigh, we believe that great education is more than just an excellent academic preparation for the future. Great education builds resilience and resourcefulness – the ability to find a way, to struggle and achieve. It gives students the confidence to push their own limits – to take on and conquer new challenges.

Great education is creative. It is collaborative. It is hard work for just reward. It has balance and perspective, nurtures self-worth and instils the desire to contribute and make change. We are a forward-thinking, creative, contemporary school with academically rigorous programs and challenge in every part of the curriculum. At Woodleigh, students discover and follow passions, grow in a culture of mutual respect, cultural freedom and inclusion.

The Minimbah Campus of Woodleigh School has provided an education for girls and boys from Frankston and the Peninsula for more than 160 years. From 3-year-old Early Childhood through to Year 6 we seek to provide an environment where students are stimulated and challenged – where education can be a joy.

Vital and unique to our School are the positive and supportive relationships which exist between students, staff and parents. All Minimbah students are valued equally, and all are given equal opportunities to develop their skills and abilities in all facets of school life.

Our approach to education enables students to become more academically able, encourages them to be more aware of what is happening in the world around them and helps them to develop the ability to make rational informed decisions. Minimbah provides a wonderful environment where the young child can feel secure and develop a love for learning and life.
