Strathcona Baptist Girls Grammar School is an independent, Baptist, day school for girls, located in Canterbury, an inner-eastern suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Established in 1924 by Florence Livingstone and Henrietta Hughes, the school currently caters for approximately 800 students from Preparatory to Year 12, over three campuses. Year nine girls attend 'Tay Creggan', a historic building on the Yarra River in Hawthorn. Years 7 to 12 are located in Canterbury, and the primary school is located on a new purpose built premises in close proximity to the Main Campus in Canterbury.[2]

The school is affiliated with the Junior School Heads Association of Australia (JSHAA),[3] the Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia (AHISA),[4] the Association of Independent Schools of Victoria (AISV),[5] the Alliance of Girls' Schools Australasia (AGSA),[6] and is a founding member of Girls Sport Victoria (GSV).[7]

History

Strathcona was established in 1924 by its founding principals, Mrs Florence Livingstone and Henrietta Hughes, with a small number of pupils, both boys and girls.[8]

In 1942, the school was purchased by the Baptist Union for the purpose of establishing a Baptist school for girls, and thus the school was renamed Strathcona Baptist Girls Grammar School.[8]

Ms Featherstone commenced as headmistress in 1943, serving the school for 10 years. Enrolments increased rapidly and despite strict building restrictions after the Second World War, facilities were expanded providing for up to 200 girls.[8]

In November 1969, Strathcona purchased 'Tay Creggan', the Year 9 campus located in Hawthorn on the banks of the Yarra River.[8]
