Tradition is our Foundation

The school has always been the most important means of transferring the wealth of tradition from one generation to the next."
- Albert Einstein

oldboysTudor House has been around for a long time, establishing a tradition that continues today. We treasure our links with the past - and the boys, as a result, build a sense of pride and an understanding of their "moment in time". Few schools have this link. Once an Old Tudorian, friendships persist for the rest of our boys' lives. There is a loyalty that is unique to this school. Prep school boarding fosters a lifetime of close friendships. The network is a web of rich associations.

Established in 1897, Tudor House moved from Sydney to its present rural site in 1902. The founder (Mr Wilfred Inman) wanted the school to educate the whole boy. He believed that there needed to be rigorous classroom programmes, an opportunity for boys to be boys, the chance to learn about and appreciate the environment and to be able to serve their community with honesty, integrity and courage.

The qualities we continue to develop in the present generation of boys attending Tudor House are based on traditional values. It is never too young to learn these skills and the school expects all boys from Kindergarten to Year 6 to be caring, thoughtful, inquisitive and to serve others. The school also encourages boys to be boys and to enjoy the challenges of their youth.

Tudor House is the only Primary boys boarding school in Australia.  We care for primary school boarders and day students near Sydney, situated in the Southern Highlands near Bowral, Mittagong and close to Moss Vale.

With over 110 years of service, we have educated many of Australia's leading families. Our record stands the test of time. From our pages flow Australian prime ministers, famous authors, renowned artists, and successful fathers. Our heritage is strong, our focus is innovative, our expectations set high.

"We chose Tudor in the first place - to build the character of our children whilst still allowing them to be little boys. I wanted the Tom Sawyer experience for my kids. My son the other day was becoming very sentimental and said, "I would not have been able to do all of these things ANYWHERE."
