Help create a new home for bold ideas, built on independent thinking

The challenges facing our world are growing more complex. In response, the way we educate our students must evolve.

Your support in action

Where we learn inspires how we learn.

Supporting the Morrow Centre will help students develop something more enduring than academic achievement alone.

It will help them to develop intellectual curiosity, perspective and the courage to hold and advocate for ideas.

More than a building

The Jack Morrow Centre for Humanities is a physical expression of a belief; that environments shape how young people learn, think and understand the world.

The role of Humanities

The Humanities explore the ideas, cultures and values that shape the human experience. They help students question assumptions, understand different perspectives, and engage with complex global challenges.

Shaping the next generation

The Morrow Centre will place independent thinking at the heart of a Melbourne Grammar education — helping students develop the courage of ideas in a world that demands it.

The Courage of Ideas is Melbourne Grammar School’s comprehensive and capital fundraising campaign in support of our School’s strategic vision, Towards 2030.

The Courage of Ideas reflects Melbourne Grammar School’s role in developing independent thinking through education, and in building students’ capacity to form and stand behind their own thinking.
