About the College

Pymble Ladies’ College is a leading independent school of the Uniting Church in Australia, set on 20 hectares of beautiful park-like grounds on Sydney’s Upper North Shore, for girls from Kindergarten to Year 12, with boarding available from Year 7. Pymble offers exceptional opportunities for girls and young women. They enjoy extensive curricular and co-curricular educational programs, advanced learning technology, outstanding facilities and extensive choices in the performing/visual arts, sporting and cultural arenas. A strong academic record and focus on each student as an individual creates a caring, safe, stimulating environment that inspires a balanced educational experience. The College is deeply committed to academic, sporting and cultural excellence, and we are equally committed to service, contribution and giving back to the community. Our vision is to provide an education universally acknowledged for its outstanding quality and exceptional opportunities. The College is divided into separate schools on the one campus, providing more leadership opportunities and more age-specific academic and personal care for each student. Each of the schools has its own distinct precinct. There is a Junior School (Kindergarten to Year 6), a Middle School (Years 7 and 8), an Upper School (Years 9 and 10) and a Senior School (Years 11 and 12). Each of the Schools has its own Head of School, Deputy Head of School and two Heads of Year.

The school year runs from the end of January through to the beginning of December. There are four terms, with breaks in April (three weeks), July (three weeks), September (two weeks) and December/January (seven weeks). Accomodation in the Boarding House closes during these holiday breaks. Information and policies for students and parents is available on MyPymble which is the parent portal. Login details are shared prior to commencement of study at Pymble.
