Welcome from the Head of the Preparatory School :
Mr Keith Dalleywater
The King's School Preparatory School is the happiest of combinations. As part of the oldest independent school in Australia it has a wonderful sense of its heritage. However, it also prides itself on its innovation. It seeks to be a lighthouse place of learning.
The King's School has established itself as a national leader in the specialist art of boys' education. At King's we understand maleness. We channel its energy and accommodate its foibles to create a vibrant and rewarding learning community. Via the unique Fathers' Association, the school taps into "dad power", and this, combined with the school's high proportion of male staff, means that the boys have numerous healthy male role models to emulate.
King's Prep is a place where superb teaching in the six Key Learning Areas, unrivalled resources and facilities, and a balanced, boy-friendly program, combine to offer your son the best possible start to his education! Whether a boy be in Kindergarten or Year Six, the King's School Preparatory School is in pursuit of academic excellence for him, within a well-balanced, liberal program, designed to nurture the whole person - mind, body and soul.
It is a key philosophy that parents and teachers should be in partnership in the education of the boys. Teaching and learning outcomes can only benefit from clear and honest communications. To this end, I hope that the information presented in this on-line guide is of use to you.
Welcome to this unique place.
