OPEN DAY
ENROL AT COOGEE BOYS' PREPARATORY
A Message From The Principal

Welcome to Coogee Boys’ Preparatory School. For over 112 years, our school has been a trusted presence in boys’ education within the Eastern Suburbs, and it is a profound privilege to lead this community as its fourth Principal. Working in close partnership with our third Headmaster, Mr John Dicks, as he transitions into the role of Executive Principal, I am proud to uphold a legacy of stability and continuity that remains the heartbeat of our school. We are guided by a purpose as clear and steadfast today as it was a century ago: to nurture every young boy as he develops into a Gentleman, a Scholar, and a Sportsman.
At Coogee Prep, we believe that for a boy to truly thrive, he must first be known. As a boutique, single-stream school, we offer a unique and vibrant environment where no student is a face in a crowd. Every student is known by name, his unique interests are understood, and his potential is individually supported. This personal connection is the foundation upon which we develop the character of a gentleman, a love of learning, and a sporting spirit. By providing this nurturing and supportive experience from Kindergarten to Year Six, our boys develop the self-confidence and readiness necessary to transition seamlessly into high school and life beyond.
While we honour our proud history, we are equally focused on preparing boys for the opportunities and challenges of the future. Supported by our dedicated staff, our wonderful families and our loyal Old Boys, we provide the warmth, ambition and individual care that only a small school can offer.
I look forward to welcoming you into the heart of the Coogee Prep community.
Mr Jason Wren-Pattison, Principal
