Encouraging our students to find a sense of community, enjoyment and belonging through sport

Rowing

At Perth College, rowing is not just a sport; it embodies the true spirit of teamwork and sportsmanship. We were the first school in Western Australia to introduce an all-girls rowing program in 1981 and continue to be one of the top-performing IGSSA schools. 

Our Learn to Row program allows new students to try rowing in a supportive environment. Through our Rowing program, girls can form new relationships and challenge themselves both physically and mentally, promoting personal growth and character development.


Our goal is to inspire joy in learning, every day. All our academic and co-curricular programs are created specifically for girls, in an environment that nurtures confidence and determination.
