Moama Anglican Grammar is delighted to announce the acquisition of an 84-acre property, Gunbower Estate, which will provide integrated learning opportunities for students in Kindergarten through to Year 12. We are immensely grateful to the G&A Kent Charitable Trust who has made this purchase possible through a significant donation.
Experiences delivered at Gunbower Estate will complement our current Academic and Pastoral curriculum delivery and support development of transferable life skills, enhance student well-being, character development and resilience. Through exposure to the ‘real world classrooms’ at Gunbower Estate our students will further develop respect for self, others, and the environment. Additionally, students will learn more about sustainable living, local history and Indigenous cultures and practices whilst being immersed for varying durations. Endless new possibilities lay ahead for current and future students of Moama Anglican Grammar through this expansion.
This is a significant moment in our School’s history, and we very much look forward to partnering with our community as we activate Gunbower Estate to support student experience.
