| Description | ‘An education for life’ For over 100 years we have provided students with exceptional educational experiences in an unrivaled atmosphere of love and commitment to developing the whole person. Our students excel academically, across a wide variety of VCE and IBDP subjects, and enjoy access to first-class facilities and an outstanding array of cocurricular experiences. We seek out only the best teachers from around the world to nurture the academic, moral and cultural growth of students to develop their confidence and sense of independence and to help them to uncover talents, interests, and values which not only prepare them for the next stage of their education but stay with them for life. A St Leonard's education seeks to develop selfless citizens, who understand that their education is not only about what it can bring to their life, but through them what it can bring to the lives of others. This is what we mean when we speak of ‘an education for life’. |
