In 2026, Newington will enter an exciting new phase as the College transitions to co-education starting with Kindergarten and Year 5, becoming fully co-educational by 2033. Our students will enter a world that will require them to walk and work alongside all genders collaboratively, respectfully and empathetically as colleagues, employers, employees, partners, parents and friends. We want to ensure the College remains a vibrant, contemporary institution, in step with the society it is part of.
