Principal’s Welcome

Principal’s Welcome

So many of our earliest and most lasting memories are formed in school: friendships that begin in the classroom or on the playground, lessons that shape not just what we know, but how we see the world.

Founded in 2004, Lakes Grammar is shaped by the rich traditions of an Anglican grammar school. With a deep sense of purpose and a spark of joy, we strive to inspire lives of curiosity, character, and service.

We celebrate each student’s unique journey and welcome families of all backgrounds regardless of gender, culture, or faith. We are committed to providing a rigorous and engaging education, while also nurturing the character and wellbeing of every child.

Together with families, we hope to educate, guide, and nurture tomorrow’s leaders. Our goal is to graduate healthy and inspired critical thinkers, creative innovators, and—above all—ethical and engaged citizens. We want the earliest memories from Lakes to serve as positive foundations for all that lies ahead.

Every student at Lakes is surrounded by an exceptional team of intelligent, compassionate, and dedicated staff. Some staff have been part of the Lakes journey from the early days, while others—like me—have joined more recently. Wherever our starting point, we’re all united by the same purpose to help every student flourish.

We warmly invite you to visit us in person, so we can share more about our school and our belief in education as a powerful force for good in the world.

Mr Richard Wheeldon
Principal
