“I like it how the teachers are friendly and always willing to help.  I enjoy going on the camps and there are always new and exciting things to do.  Carncot has good sports and the hockey team is great fun. It was good that so many of us got into the rep teams for hockey.”

Carncot provides a unique environment that allows girls to find their own way in a safe, supportive social and physical environment.

It is a place that is structured to suit the way girls learn and interact which in turn gives girls the tools and encouragement they need to develop into self-confident individuals.

The social environment helps create a culture with few distractions and disciplinary issues so the learning time is maximised. Cultural diversity is fostered and international students are very much part of our school family.

The physical environment also provides a great backdrop for learning. Our school buildings range from the beautiful historic homestead steeped in rich tradition, to the bold and functional modern classrooms. The school grounds are well-kept and the girls take pride in maintaining the attractiveness of the school.

“Students experience a selection of leadership challenges and responsibilities. A well-established buddy system promotes an inclusive school community. Peer mediators and house captains are positive role models for girls. Trustees and staff emphasise tradition and values. An holistic approach is taken to develop each girl’s potential and to encourage qualities of respect, caring, confidence, loyalty and pride. Students demonstrate very high levels of self discipline, motivation and self esteem. Success and endeavours are regularly celebrated through classroom reward systems, assemblies and newsletters.” ERO Report 2008
