Together we are one proud school community that share the same core values of respect, character, curiosity and courage. We have formed strong links with our local community and embrace the cultural diversity within our school.

The school motto ‘Virtute et Labore’ (be good and work hard) and the Unicorn crest was introduced by Miss Gipson. In 2009 with the establishment of our senior boys campus, Berwick Grammar School, the crest was changed to reflect the school’s equal provision of education for girls and boys. The crest now features two unicorns: the unicorn on the left is the female and the unicorn on the right the male. Together the unicorns represent valuing the school’s history, traditions and achievements while providing a contemporary education, experience and environment which ensures success for the future.

At St Margaret’s and Berwick Grammar School we are committed to achieving excellence in all that we do and ensure all students continue to learn and grow within a positive and respectful environment.

The Junior School, located at the St Margaret’s campus in Berwick, is an International Baccalaureate coeducational school with the Primary Years Programme being the framework for transdisciplinary teaching and learning. Single gender education commences from Year 7 with the boys transferring to the Officer Campus and the girls remaining at the Berwick Campus and transitioning to the Senior School.

Expectations and standards are high with particular focus on academic excellence, pastoral care and personal wellbeing. Students are empowered to take responsibility for their own learning with support and guidance from dedicated and highly skilled teachers and staff. They are also encouraged to challenge themselves and experience new opportunities by participating in a wide range of extra curricula activities.
