All Saints Grammar School - "The Independent School that prepares your child for the Future"
All Saints Grammar School is a co-educational Orthodox Christian School from
Kindergarten to Year 12, run under the auspices of the Greek Orthodox
Archdiocese of Australia. This young and vibrant school founded in 1990 by the
Parish and Community of Belmore and District to provide academic excellence
within a foundation of Orthodox Christian ethics.
The School encourages and nurtures success to be an intrinsic part of all
students and promotes a caring and safe environment which allows the student to
remain focused and on task. This is achieved with the assistance of a dedicated,
experienced and friendly teaching staff whose prime goal is to establish each
child's learning and personal potential.
The School Crest and Motto are symbols of the School’s ideals and provide an insight into our ethos, aims and goals.
The School’s Motto-‘Let us Stand Well’ is a liturgical phrase that is heard at the beginning of the most sacred part of the Divine Liturgy, the Holy Eucharist. On the School Crest, it symbolises an invitation to all to be vigilant in the preservation, development and passing on to future generations the ideals symbolised by the other motifs on the Crest.
The symbol of the Open Book represents the values of education, learning and
scholarship. The Ionian Column symbolises our Hellenic Tradition, language and
culture. The Southern Cross is a symbol of the Australian Nation and our
commitment to the Australian Community. The letters A and Ω, the first and last
letters of the Greek Alphabet make reference to the Greek Language. The School
recognises that a fuller appreciation of the Greek culture and civilization
requires command of the Greek language and provides instruction in the language
to all students. The Cross of Salvation binds these four symbols, as all we do
and believe in, are for our salvation and for the Glory of God.
The Senior School situated in heritage grounds in Belmore South, has wonderful
new facilities catering to the needs of our students. These include Science
Laboratories, fully equipped and functional Library with computer access for all
students, Visual Arts workshop, a Digital Media room, Design and Technology
rooms, a fully equipped Computer Laboratory, Food Technology, and Music classrooms along with a Canteen
and beautiful open spaces provide a culture which stimulates and engenders
learning.
At the Senior School, emphasis is placed on preparing our students for the
workforce. This entails particular emphasis on an academically challenging
curriculum to prepare students for their choice within the adult workforce.
The Junior School is situated within the grounds of our Church and it is a state of the art, multi-storey campus.
The Junior School places tremendous emphasis on
the individual needs of the developing child and provides for the necessary
social and educational skills that lead to a well adjusted and well prepared
future citizen. In In the Primary School our Learning Support Staff work with the students either in the main classroom, small group withdrawal or on an individual basis.
In the middle years of schooling which incorporates Years 5 and 6, the program is designed to provide flexibility and responsibility as well as engage students in their learning and develop greater self-discipline. The curriculum in these years has been sequenced to ensure easy transfer from Primary into High School without loss of momentum or focus.
