With a •rm belief that life-long learning is built on curiosity, creativity and innovative thinking, Mulgrave places high value on entrepreneurship. The school o-ers formal entrepreneurship classes and is looking to create a physical space where students can develop their entrepreneurial ideas outside of school hours. "We're continually surprised by what our students are doing outside of school, so we asked: 'How can we support that?'" says Head of School John Wray. "Being enterprising and entrepreneur- ial—those are life skills, whether you're a doctor or an artist."

The school has recently imple- mented a bursary program in keeping with its commitment to welcome extraordinary girls from a diverse range of backgrounds. The program, for students entering Grade 8, covers the full or partial cost of attending Crofton House. With 901 girls enrolled this year from junior kindergarten to Grade 12, the school prides itself on o-ering a supportive and joyful learning environment that prepares girls for life ahead.
