Aitken College is a Prep to Year 12 co-educational, independent school in association with the Uniting Church located on 18 hectares in Greenvale. We are determined to be a school that inspires everyone to do their personal best, in service to themselves and other people. To achieve this, our focus is on inspiring excellence as a personal goal so that students find their calling and develop the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to pursue their own ambitious goals. Equally, we believe that developing character matters because when we challenge young people and take them out of their comfort zone, what they develop alongside new skills and knowledge might not be assessable, but it matters greatly.
