All Souls’ was established by the Brotherhood of Saint Barnabas in 1920 as a memorial school to the fallen in World War 1. St Gabriel’s was established by the Sisters of the Sacred Advent in 1921. In 1991 the two schools became one offering education for boys and girls from Prep to Year 12 with boarding from Year 6. |

Students are taught in the Platonic tradition – the development of the whole person
in mind, body and spirit. We aim to produce self reliant and independent young men and women .We also encourage our students to value service to others in line with the School motto – Servire Regnare – to serve is to rule. |

All Souls St Gabriels’ students are taught not what to think but how to think.
Despite our small size, a broad range of subjects is offered from the fundamental areas of reading, writing and arithmetic to vocational education and training, performing and visual arts, rural studies and information technology. |
