A Tradition of Success
Academics
Through a balanced education, every Saints Girl is encouraged to aim high, think deeply and unlock her unique potential.
Our goal is to help every one of our students reach their potential. We encourage our girls to uncover strengths by exploring their interests and passions, while ensuring the education they receive is diverse and balanced.
Year after year, our girls excel both in and out of the classroom. The School’s academic results are consistently among the best in the State, making St Peter’s Girls a leading educational institution. It is a testament to our dedicated and distinguished staff who work tirelessly to challenge our girls and prepare them for the academic road ahead.
Our girls are not only given the tools and support to navigate their schooling lives, but also the courage and drive to take on the world once they graduate.
STEM
At St Peter’s Girls, we encourage all our students to explore, experiment and think differently. Our STEM programs (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) inspire girls to ask questions, solve problems and create change. In an all-girls environment, our students are free to pursue their interests without barriers or bias, leading to greater confidence and participation in many fields where women are often underrepresented.
From hands-on investigations in our purpose-built science labs to coding challenges and even competing in national competition, STEM at Saints empowers girls to see how their ideas can shape the future.
We’re proud to see growing numbers of Saints Girls embracing STEM as part of their future.
Accelerated Subject Offerings
At St Peter’s Girls’ School, we are committed to nurturing every student’s potential through learning opportunities that inspire challenge, curiosity and growth. Our accelerated subject offerings allow academically ready students to engage with curriculum beyond their year level, including early access to Stage 1 and Stage 2 SACE subjects and pathways into both SACE and IB programs. From Advanced Biological Science and Advanced Mathematics to Dance, Music and Faith, Ethics and the Modern World, these pathways support students to learn at the right pace, deepen their understanding and pursue their passions with confidence.
Digital Technology
As technology continues to transform the world, we’re leading the way with cutting-edge digital learning opportunities that prepare students for a changing future. Our classrooms have the latest in digital tools and platforms, offering coding and robotics right through to advanced data analytics and digital design.
As with technology, our courses are continually evolving. With a focus on the student, not just “the equipment,” our approach ensures students learn collaboration, problem-solving and adaptable ways of thinking.
By embracing technology along with creativity, we’re equipping our students to thrive in the careers of tomorrow.
Tutor Program
At St Peter’s Girls, we believe learning is a holistic and shared journey. Our Tutor Program is a free service provided to students in Years 7–12, designed to nurture positive study habits and provide one-on-one academic support.
All our tutors are recent Old Scholars – enthusiastic, capable graduates who understand the challenges of student life and the importance of building confidence in learning. This flexible program allows our students to seek support at scheduled times throughout the week, reinforcing their classroom learning and strengthening their study skills.
Whether a student needs extra help in a specific subject or guidance with an upcoming project, our tutors provide invaluable support and encouragement. The program empowers our girls to take ownership of their learning and approach their studies with independence.
