Loreto Normanhurst is one of Sydney’s leading independent girls schools. Our school is a Catholic Day and Boarding School, catering for girls from Year 5 to 12. Loreto Normanhurst is part of a worldwide tradition of over 400 years of educating young women, under the care of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary (IBVM), also known as the Loreto Sisters. Our mission is inspired by the 400-year-old legacy of our foundress, Mary Ward, who envisaged a world of opportunity for young women. Her vision remains relevant to us today as we continue to educate ‘compassionate warriors’ – young women who are confident and capable of taking their place in the world as leaders, change-makers and active global citizens.

Our International Student Program was launched in 2022 in support of our strategic vision for global citizenship – to ensure that all our students grow in empathy for others, build dialogue through sharing perspective and story, and are prepared to contribute to a future Australia and inter-connected world.

Students may enrol at Loreto Normanhurst in our International Student Program in any school year, however preference is given to Secondary students seeking enrolment in our Boarding School.

We invite you to connect with us to discover how we may partner with your family in these important years of your daughter’s growth.
