What St Mary's Anglican Girls School does

St Mary's Anglican Girls' School is an independent Anglican day and boarding school located in Karrinyup, Perth, Western Australia, founded in 1921 and currently celebrating 105 years of operation. It delivers a continuous K-12 pathway comprising Early Learning, Junior School (Years 3-6), and Senior School (Years 7-12), with a boarding program that has accepted regional Western Australian students since 1947 and an international student stream operated under CRICOS provider number 00454C.

The school's academic offering is structured around an Elevate Pathway in the Senior School and is supplemented by a broad co-curricular program in music, dance, drama, outdoor education at the St Mary's at Metricup campus, and competitive sports including netball, swimming, diving, and surfing. The on-campus Sir Thomas Wardle Swimming Pool Complex anchors an integrated aquatic platform comprising St Mary's Swim School, the North Coast Swim Club, and North Coast Masters, the last of which extends paid programming to adult community swimmers.

The school's revenue model is built on tuition and boarding fees, augmented by community swim program fees, international student fees, and philanthropic contributions via the Old Girls' association, Foundation, Annual Giving, and Bequests. Governance is independent and Anglican-affiliated through membership in Anglican Schools Australia and the Girls Schools Association, with the school participating in the National Redress Scheme. Financial figures are not publicly disclosed.
