Scholar

Coogee Prep has a tradition of being dedicated to learning the basics — starting in the early years of Infants and then extending the boys academically in the Primary years. Smaller class sizes result in teachers focusing on each boy's individual needs. An integrated academic syllabus that includes drama, art and music, debating and chess ensures all boys receive a well-rounded, engaging education. The design and technology program includes hands-on initiatives across a range of key learning areas. Projects such as surfboard and billycart design, Lego construction, robotics and coding combine both creative and practical aspects. Students take part in exciting creative and performing arts experiences, showcasing talents in music, drama, public speaking and whole school performance. Beyond this, students participate in the School's outdoor program, including school camp, as well as excursions to museums and art galleries. Bi-annually, senior students participate in a Rural NSW tour to learn firsthand about the history, geography and societal aspects of our land and community.
