This history changing move reflects Newington’s commitment to embracing diversity and fostering inclusiveness within our connected school and alumni community. Our evolution to a co-educational institution highlights our commitment to enriching our learning environment with diverse perspectives and experiences, preparing students to serve in a globally interconnected world.

Our senior campus, catering to students in Years 7–12, and our Wyvern House Preparatory campus, for students in Years K–6, are located in the inner-city suburb of Stanmore. These campuses sit alongside our Early Learning Centre (ELC), which caters for three-to five-year-old students. Our expansive Lindfield Preparatory K–6 campus is set amongst leafy bushland in Sydney’s northern suburbs and offers the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program (IB PYP). Our beautiful 200-hectare rural campus, Eungai Creek, is located on NSW’s mid north coast between Sydney and Brisbane and is home to our service-learning immersion curriculum and outdoor education program.
