About

Oxford High School has been the alma mater of independent-minded, trailblazing young women for over 140 years. Welcome to Oxford High School GDST and our history. Oxford High School (OHS) to its devotees is a place of scholarship and learning tempered by spirit, fun and community.

Justifiably proud of its extraordinary academic outcomes, OHS is a place where young women are prepared for a world where they give back to others who have not had the same opportunities. A place where young women are prepared for the demands of the future, led by committed and dedicated staff absolutely devoted to their students' wellbeing and achievement.

The women who find their way here are curious, sparky and delight in challenge of any kind, whether it is joining the water polo club, singing opera for the first time or managing our very own hives of bees.

Leadership opportunities abound and we are so proud that our students lead the school, put on world rivalling conferences, write to world leaders and enable opportunities for all those around us.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
