Canberra Girls Grammar School (CGGS) is committed to maintaining a positive and welcoming environment for international students, ensuring that a world-class education in the heart of the nation's capital is accessible and inclusive.
Nestled in the picturesque foothills of Red Hill, Canberra, CGGS is just one kilometre from Parliament House, and minutes to Australia’s national institutions, high-performance sport facilities, 100+ Embassies and High Commissions and Federal Government departments. Known as ‘the Knowledge Capital’, Canberra ranks in the top 35 best student cities globally*. Our tertiary institutions rank in the world’s top 100, with one in Australia’s top 10. As such a globally connected city, it’s impossible not to feel inspired at CGGS—each student that calls our Boarding House their second home has unparalleled access to live and learn in the heart of the nation’s capital, and make the most of every day.
Our international students are well-supported by a dedicated team of staff, including the Director of Boarding, Heads of House, Tutors, classroom teachers and a comprehensive Pastoral Care program. International students also have access to the School's world-class facilities, including science and computer laboratories, an inclusive gallery and creative space, the School Library, Multimedia Theatre, Music Academy, Drama Centre, sporting facilities and indoor pool and the School's lakeside precinct, Yhuuramulum.
