An Education Designed to Help Every Girl Thrive
At Tara, we help every girl discover her strengths, realise her potential and grow with confidence.
As an International Baccalaureate Continuum School, we offer the Primary Years Programme (ELC to Year 6), Middle Years Programme (Years 7 to 10) and, from 2027, the Diploma Programme as an alternative senior pathway. Together with our outstanding HSC results, these pathways reflect our commitment to academic excellence and personalised learning.
Girls are challenged and supported in an environment that encourages critical thinking, creativity and personal growth. Beyond the classroom, they can pursue their interests through extensive opportunities in the arts, sport, leadership and service.

OPPORTUNITIES BEYOND THE CLASSROOM
At Tara, girls are encouraged to explore their interests, discover new passions and develop their talents in a supportive and dynamic environment. Our extensive cocurricular program offers opportunities across debating, public speaking, the performing arts, sport, academic pursuits and a wide range of clubs and activities.
We also encourage students to think beyond their immediate world and develop a global perspective through cultural experiences, international performance tours and overseas exchange programs. These opportunities help girls build confidence, broaden their horizons and develop the skills and connections to thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.
STUDENT LEADERSHIP AT TARA
All activities and leadership roles are open to all our girls. They have the chance to participate, influence and lead. Student leadership is a great way to tap into student energy, build self respect and create a caring School.
Student leadership at Tara empowers our students. What is important to them, is important to us.
Boarding at Tara's Eggleton House
For rural families, Eggleton House provides a supportive boarding community where girls build independence, resilience and lifelong friendships while remaining connected to the life of the School.
We value the commitment, ability and exceptional contribution boarders bring to the life of the School.
