From the St Helen's School
Everything we do at St. Helen's is focused on the girls.
Our kids develop into the best versions of themselves: joyful, healthy, and active individuals who think creatively and flexibly as well as with compassion, accountability, and thoughtfulness.
Everyone should be encouraged to study more, to figure things out for themselves, and to embrace learning, from the young girl entering nursery school for the first time to the girl entering Year 7 who is ready to enter adolescence.
The girls learn to know and grasp what they care about and have the confidence to go out into the world and live the lives they want to lead by taking risks and expanding their imaginations.
Each girl can identify her passions and abilities through our co-curricular programme, which allows her to have fun and learn a lot about herself.
Because of this, girls graduate from St. Helen's with a sense of inner serenity and confidence as well as a sense of when others need a word of encouragement. We are quite proud of the thoughtful and caring attitude that forms the foundation of our school life.
