The future of sport at St Andrew’s Cathedral School is being shaped by student voices.
Through the newly established Sports Committee and Girls Sport Sub-Committee, students are stepping into leadership roles, sharing ideas and exploring ways to strengthen the sporting experience for girls across the School.
As part of this journey, students have been learning from leaders in the sporting industry, gaining new perspectives on building culture, creating opportunities and the important role women play in shaping the future of sport.
Inspired by these experiences, the girls are now turning their ideas into action — working towards initiatives that encourage participation, develop leadership and help create a more connected sporting community.

From producing Christian television programmes to leading chaplaincy at St Andrew's Cathedral School, Rev Michael Bennett's journey has been one of faith, service and a commitment to helping others grow.
As our new School Chaplain, Michael is working alongside our Christian Development team to support students, staff, families and alumni, creating opportunities for meaningful conversations, pastoral care and the exploration of faith.
A remarkable achievement for Junior School Captain Mairah!
We are delighted to celebrate Mairah K (Year 6), who has been shortlisted in the Philosophy Category of the John Locke Institute 2026 Global Essay Prize.
This year’s competition received more than 100,000 entries from 183 countries, making Mairah’s achievement an incredible recognition of her thoughtful ideas, creativity and writing ability.
Following a rigorous selection process, Mairah has been invited to attend the Global Essay Prize Awards Ceremony in London this October, where the category winners will be announced.
We are incredibly proud of Mairah and the way she continues to embrace opportunities to think deeply, share her ideas and inspire those around her.
Project Catalyst is a mentoring programme that connects Junior School students with Secondary School mentors in a structured, relationship-based learning experience.
Each week, students are paired across year levels based on shared interests or strengths, meeting on Thursday mornings to set goals, explore ideas and work together on personalised projects – from science investigations and creative pursuits through to competition-based learning.
Designed to support gifted learners, the programme strengthens academic growth while also building confidence, leadership and connection across the School community. For younger students, it offers encouragement and inspiration from older peers; for mentors, it develops communication, empathy and leadership through service.
A powerful example of students learning with and from one another across stages of learning.

Even though we celebrate our birthday on Gala Day, we actually turn 141 years old today!
On 14th July 1885 St Andrew’s Cathedral School was founded by the third Bishop of Sydney, Dr Alfred Barry with 27 students, 22 of whom were choristers. Its aim was to provide “a high class free education based on church principles in addition to musical training”.
Here is a picture of one of our original locations in c.1909 - this one on Pitt St. There’s a lot going on in this photo including a boy perched on the roof and second from the right, Australia's most famous aviator Sir Charles Kingsford Smith (OA1914).
We’ve come a long way since then, although our foundational principles have not changed in 141 years.
As our School hymn says, and generations of us have proudly sung - ‘we change, but thou art still the same. The same good master, teacher, friend’.
So to all Andreans old and new - here’s to another 141 years! ... See MoreSee Less
