About school
The hallmark of a Launceston Grammar education is one of inspiration and courage. Our history shows that each student who passes through leaves an enduring mark for the next generation to follow. Launceston Grammar was founded on 15 June 1846 with Reverend Henry Plow-Kane chosen as founding Headmaster. At Launceston Grammar we inspire our students to be courageous as they embrace challenges with integrity and justice; curious in exploring and examining our world; creative as they discover and design solutions for current and future challenges; and compassionate in seeking and serving the needs of our world. At our School you will discover a strong, supportive community reflected in the genuine warmth and connection between students, families, alumni and staff. We are Australia’s oldest continuously operated independent school, giving the gift of outstanding learners and leaders since 1846. We are now home to over 860 students, 50 of whom board.
