Strategic Plan
2020 to 2022
As we move forward as a School, we do so in a very measured and carefully considered way, and helping direct that pathway for the School over the next three years is our new Strategic Plan.
This Plan will guide a range of coordinated and well-considered initiatives and improvements that help provide an even more compelling educational experience for all families. The Plan is designed to place the School in a strong financial, sustainable position that best meets the needs and demands of a dynamic future.
The School’s Strategic Plan is available to view via the links below:
Our Motto
Learning to Soar
Our Vision and Mission
We seek to be a community where our students, parents and staff learn to soar, at school and in life.

Achievement
We are inspired to fulfil our potential. We celebrate our successes and grow from our challenges, both individually and collectively.
Empowerment
We are empowered to advocate and action change, with the skills, passion and empathy to live beyond ourselves and make the world a better place.
The St John’s Spirit
St John’s Grammar was founded in 1958 by a group of risk-taking, forward thinking parents who aspired to create a school that provided the very best learning experience, nurturing a student’s free spirit and promoting tolerance and collaboration. Their bold new approach to education, inspired by the Hills environment, created the foundation for the St John’s Spirit.
The St John’s Spirit lives on today.
The St John’s Advantage
The St John’s Advantage forges unique and exciting pathways for students, and inspires a quest to live a life that shapes a world that is better for all. We are a globally focussed school, immersed in our local community. We value collaboration and cross-cultural engagement. We leverage technology and value real-world application. We advance personalised and inclusive learning and connect our graduates to a life of meaning and purpose.
