But our modest footprint boasts an impressive array of facilities in support of our students\u2019 development. These are spread across our three campuses \u2014 the Junior School and Senior School in Canterbury, and the Year 9 Tay Creggan in Hawthorn.<\/p><p>In 2024, Strathcona will open its purpose-built Early Years Centre, exclusively designed for students from ELC to Year 1. This innovative facility combines the significance of play in developing the foundational building blocks of education during a child&#8217;s formative years.<\/p><p>From ELC to Senior School, spaces have been purpose-built to suit student needs at each year level. These include state-of-the-art smart classrooms, seminar rooms, quiet study spaces, halls and galleries, kitchens, social areas, outdoor spaces (including learning spaces), art rooms, music studios and media rooms. Our redeveloped Year 7 and 8 centre connects both year levels while providing dedicated media booths for students to record work and create podcasts.<\/p><p>Of particular note is the 1893 home Tay Creggan, our dedicated Year 9 school on the banks of the Yarra River. Within its heritage-listed walls students enjoy spacious classrooms, science laboratory, library, commercial kitchen and art space. Alongside the sports ground and basketball court outside, the river affords plenty of water-based activity, including canoeing, kayaking and

the extent of its offering, the Senior School campus amply demonstrates Strathcona\u2019s belief in maintaining a healthy body. It is home to a large, multi-purpose synthetic oval, indoor heated 25m pool, five tennis and netball courts, gymnasium complex and a weights and training room.<\/p><p>Of course, the mind is also well catered for at Strathcona, not only in our curriculum, but in our libraries. Across the Wheelton Knowledge Exchange in the Senior School, the Tay Creggan Learning Lounge, and the Junior School Library, students benefit from our formidable print, audio-visual and digital collections, online databases, and flexible learning spaces with wireless network access.<\/p><p>When it comes to the spirit, few things uplift like the arts, and our Creative and Performing Arts Centre is the ideal take-off point. With four art rooms, multimedia lab, recording studio, music, drama and performance facilities, as well as a food technology area catering to the culinary arts, every Strathcona girl has the opportunity to express her genuine self.<\/p><p>Intellectually curious, emotionally intelligent, quietly confident, socially responsible \u2014 all these and more\u00a0aptly describe the typical Strathcona\u00a0girl.

Each one driven by a unique\u00a0passion, which it is our role to identify,\u00a0nurture and develop.

skills a young person can have. Strathcona has\u00a0 customised its core principles in the form of the ELC to Year 6 program\u00a0 Tinker Train, an imaginary sequence of carriages representing the process involved \u2014 Understand, Identify, Create and Share. Each carriage features specific tools and\u00a0 experiences that students can use to shape their own thoughts and solutions when tackling an array of problems.<\/p><p>Using the Tinker Train\u00a0 process, our students\u00a0 embrace creative challenges that push their learning beyond knowledge\u00a0 acquisition into application. They create working models of the sustainable houses<br \/>of the future; invent new wearable technologies like heated hoodies; explore biomes in Minecraft;\u00a0 develop virtual reality games, and more.<\/p><p>Design Thinking principles are then used in Years 7 &#8211; 9 through our SOUL subject as well as through Digital Technology and Art and Design.<\/p><p>The crossover of technological and social is a powerful learning model. Coding is one of the most valued<br \/>foundations for a STEM career, and visual design, problem-solving and working as a team are all essential<br \/>to creative and critical thinking.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d0ebe2e elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-items-middle\" data-id=\"d0ebe2e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e052246\" data-id=\"e052246\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0f8eb5d elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0f8eb5d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e6cc0b9\" data-id=\"e6cc0b9\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1813bbe elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1813bbe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Tay Creggan represents a unique opportunity for Strathcona Year 9 girls to spend an important transitional year before Senior School in an exclusive environment tailored to their unique learning needs.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-573b148 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"573b148\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Not only is it a beautiful place to learn, it also affords us the opportunity to run one of our most\ninspirational life-skill programs, TC Envision.<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0e1a002 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0e1a002\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Seamlessly integrated with the National Year 9 Curriculum, TC Envision as an entrepreneurial approach to providing experiences and challenges that set girls up for their senior secondary years and beyond.

Whether it\u2019s a visit\u00a0to another continent, or time spent\u00a0in cutting-edge local businesses, the\u00a0girls display a truly unstoppable spirit\u00a0in all that they undertake.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3bfb669 elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-items-bottom elementor-section-content-bottom elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3bfb669\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7495b74\" data-id=\"7495b74\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-19d24ba elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"19d24ba\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9b56822\" data-id=\"9b56822\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b0a3ad elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2b0a3ad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The qualities of the unstoppable girl.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d1e2d55 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d1e2d55\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span style=\"color: #ff7d7b;\">Every girl is unique \u2014 and, conversely, it\u2019s this diversity that makes us the same.<\/span><\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bd59bf8\" data-id=\"bd59bf8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fdcff72 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fdcff72\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>At Strathcona, we celebrate the difference.

This may develop quickly or slowly, depending on the nature of the girl, but it does come. Girls learn that sitting back and being a spectator in life is nowhere near as rewarding as taking part, of being in touch with your true self and pursuing your dreams.
