Curriculum

Girton Grammar School Bendigo offers a wide range of subjects in both the Senior and Junior Schools.

The aim is to provide a strong integrated Preparatory to Year 12 focus on education, to encourage a desire for lifelong learning and to produce thinking students through excellent teaching. We also aim to provide technologies and environments to allow learning to occur more easily and in a diversity of learning styles.
