Mosman Preparatory School

Mosman Preparatory School is an independent co-educational primary school located in the leafy lower north shore suburb of Mosman, one of Sydney's most desirable family neighbourhoods. The school caters to children from Pre-Kindergarten through to Year 6, providing a strong academic foundation within the Australian Curriculum framework as registered and accredited by the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA).

The school's philosophy centres on developing confident, curious learners who are well prepared for the academic demands of selective secondary schools across Sydney's north shore. Students consistently perform above state averages in NAPLAN assessments across reading, writing, and numeracy, reflecting the school's commitment to rigorous core academics delivered in small class settings of no more than 20 students.

The Mosman campus features heritage-era buildings set within landscaped grounds that include a dedicated science laboratory, a well-stocked library with both print and digital resources, an art studio with specialist teaching, and a sports field for cricket, football, and athletics. The school also makes use of nearby Balmoral Beach and Mosman parklands for outdoor education and sports carnivals.

French is taught from Pre-Kindergarten, giving students an early start in second language acquisition that supports cognitive development and prepares them for language programs at secondary school. A specialist music program includes choral singing, instrumental tuition in strings and woodwind, and performance opportunities through annual concerts and eisteddfods.

The school places significant emphasis on pastoral care through a structured wellbeing program, dedicated classroom teachers who remain with their cohort throughout the year, and a school counsellor available for individual and group support. A strong parent community contributes to school life through volunteer programs, fundraising events, and an active Parents and Friends Association.

Graduates regularly gain entry to leading Sydney secondary schools including Shore, SCEGGS, Queenwood, Sydney Grammar, and selective government high schools. The school provides specific preparation support for selective school entrance examinations and scholarship applications.

Tuition fees range from AUD 18,000 to AUD 28,000 per year. Before and after school care programs are available for working families.
