Our School
More than 100 years since it opened its doors in 1915 with 12 students in a Parish Hall, Ivanhoe Grammar School has grown to become one of Melbourne’s leading private schools. Today, it is a multi-campus, co-educational school offering Early Learning to Year 12. With campuses in Ivanhoe, Doreen and Macleod, families in Melbourne’s North have access to the inspired learning and exceptional educational outcomes on offer at Ivanhoe.
On the following pages, we proudly introduce you to our School; our People, our proud History and our unique Purpose.
As we journey through our school years, we gain more than just great education, we receive opportunities both within and beyond the classroom. Ivanhoe Grammar School has a strong history, but our eyes are set firmly ahead: educating young people of character for a global future.
Ivanhoe Grammar School is committed to the principles of Australian Democracy which includes the process of elected government, adhering to the rules of law and equal rights for all before the law. In addition, the School believes in freedom of religion, freedom of speech and association and promotes the values of openness and tolerance.
We look forward to welcoming you to our school.
