Our School
Bacchus Marsh Grammar is a large, vibrant school that serves the families of Western Melbourne and surrounding rural areas. It operates from two campuses; Maddingley in Bacchus Marsh and Woodlea in Aintree. These are supported by a third 200 acre property at Staughton Vale which is used by students from both main campuses.
The school is committed to providing every student with an holistic and enriching education. This is based around a strong and challenging academic program, a concentration on personal development and culture, and supported by focused pastoral care and wellbeing programs.
We not only seek to enable students to meet their personal goals and ambitions, we encourage them to aspire to be active and positive members of society – in short, we offer an …“Education for Life”.
