A new school in the Molonglo Valley is one step closer after the completion of a tender process by the ACT Government.

The Anglican Diocese for Canberra and Goulburn has been successful in obtaining the site reserved for an independent school in Wright.

As the first non-Government school for the Molonglo Valley, the new independent school will be a welcome addition for the region. The new school will meet the needs and desires of a growing community as well as providing further educational options for the growing population of Molonglo.

The school – which will be completed in stages – will welcome more than 1,800 students from early learning to year 12. The early learning centre and kindergarten are due to open in 2026 with the primary and secondary schools and college due to open over the following three years.

The school is also aiming to be one of the first zero energy certified schools in Australia, under the International Living Future Institute’s certification program.
