How do you research Canberra Grammar School? Treat this page as orientation. Canberra Grammar School is listed as a co-ed boarding campus at Red Hill in ACT, with a published Anglican affiliation. Founded year, year levels and the official website below are public facts we could verify at the time of writing. Houses open, pause and change year levels — ask admissions whether the house still boards the year you need.
What this listing is not: a league table, a fee quote, or a promise that a place exists. Sibling campuses with similar names in other states are different schools. Use the official website, then request this year’s boarding handbook and the current tuition-plus-boarding schedule. If the student would enrol from overseas, confirm CRICOS registration on the government register, not on this directory.
Canberra Grammar School sits on Red Hill, looking toward Parliament House. Founded in 1929 as an Anglican boys’ school, it later became co-educational. Boarding arrangements have changed with that history — do not assume a boys-only house.
CGS boarding is one of two long-standing ACT options. Families often compare it directly with Canberra Girls Grammar. Ask about house capacity, IB or ATAR pathways (the school has publicly offered the IB Diploma in senior years — verify current status), and airport runs to Canberra Airport.
