Caulfield Grammar School

Caulfield Grammar School was founded on the 25th of April, 1881 when the first nine boys assembled in a building near the Elsternwick station, with Rev. J.H. Davies M.A as their Headmaster. Rev. Davies saw his mission in founding the school as a way of “rendering Christian service” and his declaration that his first aim was “that the School should be a thoroughly Christian one” which still gives direction to the school today. At the end of the first year, 32 boys were in attendance. Today, Caulfield Grammar School is a coeducational day and boarding school associated with the Anglican Church. It offers programs from Kindergarten to Year 12 and is a member of the Associated Public Schools (APS). Caulfield Grammar School has five campuses – three Melbourne metropolitan campuses, Caulfield Campus, Malvern Campus and Wheelers Hill Campus. The Yarra Junction Campus and Nanjing (China) Campus, both provide experiential learning programs for students from our metropolitan campus. What makes Caulfield Grammar different is: an emphasis on the appointment of specialist teachers, facilities that support an innovative teaching practice, learning programs designed to encourage a love of learning, the strength of a sequential, quality learning program from kindergarten to university level and a strong focus on preparing each child as well as we can for their respective futures. From humble beginnings, Caulfield Grammar now has an enrolment of over 3060 students. Our innovative approaches to teaching and learning have ensured Caulfield Grammar School is recognised as one of Australia’s leading independent, coeducational schools.
