Discover Melbourne Girls Grammar

Melbourne Girls Grammar is a place where challenge and choice create opportunities for every student to discover who she is meant to be.

A leader in girls’ education since 1893, our School has built an outstanding reputation for excellence, enabling students to develop with confidence and independence.

World-class learning programs, state-of-the-art facilities and an extensive co-curricular program inspire each student to achieve their best in the classroom and beyond.

To educate is to make an intervention into the lives of others. When we intervene, we do so with certain assumptions about the value of what we are doing and why. Building students' capacity for future readiness is a moral-ethical learning endeavour and one that cannot be left to chance.
To achieve this, Melbourne Girls Grammar promotes a progressive, contemporary community of practice committed to providing personalised high quality curriculum, wellbeing and co-curricular programs that enable lifelong learning for every student. We are future focused and committed to inspiring our Grammarians and equipping them with the values, knowledge and skills to be ready to make their mark on the world.

Well into their Senior Years journey, Grace and Imogen expertly manage the balance between school, sport and social commitments. From rowing, to football, to fundraising initiatives and overseas expeditions, Imogen and Grace put their study skills, leadership skills and independence to the test each day at MGGS. They love knowing that they have a network of friends that will support them through their VCE years, personal development and life beyond MGGS’s iconic red brick walls.

Both Imogen and Grace are very keen footy players and also in the School’s First VIII in Rowing. Feeling part of a community is something that’s really important to them. At MGGS, they find that community and the support to help them achieve anything they set their minds to.
