The Rev Andrew Moore - Lower-fee Anglican High Schools

        Lower-fee Anglican High Schools

        18. The Rev Andrew Moore asked -

        Are there plans to build a lower-fee paying Anglican High School in the Eastern Suburbs?

        If so, how far along that path have we come?

        To which the President replied -

        I am advised that the answers are as follows –

        Since 1996 the Sydney Anglican Schools Corporation has established nine new such ‘accessible fee’ Anglican schools at:

        OakvilleArndell Anglican College

        OakhurstRichard Johnson Anglican School

        MiltonShoalhaven Anglican School

        Orchard HillsPenrith Anglican College

        BomaderryNowra Anglican College

        Hoxton ParkThomas Hassall Anglican College

        Rouse HillRouse Hill Anglican College

        DunmoreShellharbour Anglican College, and

        TahmoorWollondilly Anglican College

        In the Eastern Suburbs the Corporation already operates the successful Claremont Preparatory School in Randwick. The establishment in the Eastern Suburbs of ‘Claremont High’ remains a priority for the Corporation. However it has not yet been possible to secure a new high school site at a reasonable price.

        SASC would be pleased to receive advice from any member of Synod concerning the availability of suitable land in the eastern suburbs.
