Founded in 1982, Tangara School for Girls is an Independent Catholic girls' school situated in the Northwest suburb of Cherrybrook in Sydney. Our educational services extend from Prep to Year 12, providing a smooth transition from Primary to Senior School within the same campus. Additionally, for boys in Prep to Year 1, there is an opportunity to join our affiliated 'brother' school, Redfield College, located in Dural, starting from Year 2.
Tangara offers families and their children a total educational experience unlike any other through our one on one mentoring system. Combined with a strong academic foundation, our unique mentoring system enables a genuine partnership between school and parents, helping every child to achieve their personal best. Our mission is summed up in our school motto: Ad Summam Virtutem, Towards the Fullness of Virtue.
Tangara is built on the belief that the best education develops the whole person, integrating the pursuit of academic excellence, learning of diverse skills, building of character and the development of faith. We inspire young women to embrace leadership and thrive in all areas of life through our outstanding academics and co-curricular opportunities in sport, music, drama, public speaking, community service, leadership and much more. We challenge our students to live a life of faith, and lead change for a more just and humane society.
