The educational journey for students of Kambala takes place within a learning environment enriched to provide a breadth of experiences to challenge the mind, body and spirit of each girl.

Typically, a Kambala graduate can be described as inwardly confident in her ability to shape a purposeful and rewarding life from the opportunities that lie ahead.

Each young woman also understands that the privilege she enjoys by attending a school offering such opportunities brings a responsibility – a responsibility to contribute to this community and society at large.

The broad ranging curriculum and wealth of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, within a positive and supportive environment, invite the girls to explore their strengths and realise their potential.  Confidence is developed as students learn that it is important to take risks, confront failures and learn from mistakes.  Resilient, self-reliant young women understand that they will have the ability to shape their own future.

Consistently excellent academic results at all levels of benchmark testing attest to the expertise of the staff in all year levels and subject areas in this non-selective school.  The high degree of engagement and commitment to achieving personal excellence is evident within the student body and ensures impressive outcomes.

Our Higher School Certificate results reflect this each year.  On average nearly 50% of Year 12 students achieve a University Admission Index (UAI) over 90.  In 2006, for example, eleven students were recipients of Premier’s Awards. Approximately 15% of our girls traditionally receive a UAI of 99 or over.

Students also have the opportunity to excel in Music, Sport, Drama, Debating and in many other areas of interest.  The life of a Kambala student is a busy one and an exciting one.

Effective pastoral care underpins all programs within the school.  The size of the school allows for each girl to be known and to feel a strong connection with this community.  The partnership between the home and the school is vital and open and effective communication is a high priority.

Kambala is a school with a proud tradition of educating young women.  From its inception in 1887, all those associated with this dynamic learning community have made a commitment to providing the best of opportunities to assist each girl in realising her potential.
