History

Founded in 1961, originally as a boys-only school, Peninsula Grammar began enrolling girls from 1994.[1] It is a member of the Associated Grammar Schools of Victoria. The school has a non-selective enrolment policy and caters for approximately 1,190 students from Kindergarten to Year 12.[2] Co-educational from 1994 and an Anglican school, Peninsula's chaplain for twenty-four years (1974–1998) – the Rev. John Leaver – initiated the founding of several other similar Anglican or Ecumenical co-educational schools in Victoria.[3]
