Located in Alice Springs, capital of Outback Australia, ºÚÁÏÍø's is a Uniting Church co-educational Boarding and Day School for students in Years 7 - 12. With strong academic excellence and a widely accredited Outdoor Education and Performing Arts program, ºÚÁÏÍø's College provides opportunities for your child that will endeavour to develop their individuality, strengthen leadership skills and create a well-rounded individual, prepared for life after school.
ºÚÁÏÍø's has an enrolment of 550 students, including 50 boarders.
The student body reflects Alice Springs' multi-cultural mix of people, most of whom have come from somewhere else. Their families include scientists, linguists, teachers, nurses, tradespeople, sociologists, anthropologists, paleontologists, computer experts, defence personnel and a large American community servicing the US-Australia joint defence force facility at Pine Gap.
Conscious of its geographic isolation, ºÚÁÏÍø's works hard to ensure this is not a limiting factor for its students. From Years 7 to 12, students are encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities and opportunities which broaden their horizons.
Students are encouraged to strive for academic excellence and as a result, our graduates attend universities in all Australian states and the US, qualified to study everything from medicine to outdoor education, music to information technology.
The College's curriculum and extra-curricular programs are designed to appeal to and challenge young people living and learning outside the mainstream of Australian urban society, while at the same time providing them with the key to it.
