About Us
Welcome To Scotch
A holistic education and whole of life preparation
I welcome you to become part of the story of Scotch College Adelaide.
Every student who walks through our gates joins a school that cares deeply about providing extraordinary opportunities and experiences that will be remembered for a lifetime.
The traditions of our school are more than simply habits and conventions, more than blazers and buildings. For over 100 years, Scotch has asked itself how to best prepare the young people in its care for all that lies ahead, so they can become the leaders and drivers of tomorrow. Those strong traditions demand we look forward, innovate with our hearts and minds, and question our past to understand the future.
Students at Scotch work with a dedicated staff, committed to bringing the best out of all who pass through our school. Our students are afforded the opportunity to explore the breadth of their passions, and experience the depth and rigour of academic disciplines.
We know learning takes place not only in a classroom, but on courts and fields, in the bush on an expedition, or under the lights of a stage. We know that working with others and our broader community helps us learn as much about ourselves as it does about the world that we live in.
And we know that wellbeing is at the core of success and happiness in every context. It is not the stuff of an evening webinar, nor a booklet handed out before lunch. Making a commitment to the wellbeing and safety of the young people in our care is proudly at the heart of all that we do.
It is a privilege to welcome you to Scotch College Adelaide, to be a valued part of our community, and to write your own page in what is now your story.
