Enrolments

Book a Tour

Self-guided. Bring closed shoes and lowered expectations.

A school tour is the best way to get a feel for the College. Tours are conducted on a self-guided basis, on the assumption that prospective families would prefer to wander unsupervised, judging discreetly, and that the school would prefer to let them.

Recommended Itinerary

The Pacific Highway gate. Begin here. Cross the pedestrian crossing only when the green man permits. The school accepts no responsibility for visitors who are gentle about this rule.
The front lawn. Walk slowly. Note the sandstone plinth, fifteen metres in. Note that there is nothing on it. Do not, under any circumstances, ask why.
The Front Office. The receptionist will recognise that you are touring and pretend not to. This is correct procedure.
The Avenue. Stroll. Recently absorbed from Hornsby Shire Council. Pedestrian use only. No futures trading.
Bowman Field. One of six sporting fields. Currently doubling as the cadet bivouac site. Step around the platoons.
The Library. Quiet floor. Observe the Year 12 cohort in their natural habitat. Do not make eye contact during Trial HSC.
The Chapel. Take a moment. The acoustics are forgiving. The pews are not.
The canteen. Pretend your Flexischools account has just lapsed. Note the staff response. Do not eat.
Locker Bank C. Suspicious. Move along.
Locker Bank E. Highly suspicious. Do not engage.
The Westfield underpass. Optional. Five-minute walk via the side gate. Used by senior students for what they describe as "academic recovery".
Hornsby station. Optional. The school does not endorse this leg of the tour but cannot, in practice, prevent it.
The Sport Complex. Note the trophy cabinet, particularly the items behind the cabinet, which are not to be discussed.
The Front Office (again). Conclude. The receptionist will continue not recognising you.
