At Alphington Grammar School we celebrate diversity and welcome students of all backgrounds. We offer a first-class education in a caring, family-like environment. Our goal is to motivate and encourage all of our students to develop their unique talents to the utmost of their potential.

Alphington Grammar School is unique in Melbourne . Established by the Greek Orthodox Community in 1989, Alphington has been designed from its inception to be academically strong, non-denominational and to embrace teaching excellence and cultural diversity.

We are situated in an attractive parkland style setting close to public transport, major commuter corridors and within easy reach of inner, eastern and northern suburbs. The school boasts an abundance of open space shaded by mature trees on the banks of Darebin Creek.

Today we are a co-educational Pre-Prep to Year 12 school managed by an independent School Council. Our community encompasses some 30 ethnic backgrounds representing a remarkable blend of cultures and beliefs. Together, we have fostered a wonderful sense of openness and caring.

We understand that our students have a wide range of academic, artistic and physical abilities. Our goal is to encourage and support each individual to achieve the highest standards of which she or he is capable. Students consistently perform well above the state average in the primary years and virtually all of our VCE students go on to undertake tertiary study.

At Alphington, we are implementing an innovative programme to gradually increase subject specialisation and student access to a broader range of staff in Years 5 and 6. This carefully structured induction programme will ease the transition from primary to secondary schooling in Year 7, ensuring students are not overwhelmed by sudden change.

We foster the study skills, work habits and attitudes needed to ensure success in later years. Our comprehensive English, Mathematics and Science programmes build on the foundation of primary years.
