Berwick Grammar School (BGS) is the senior boys campus of St Margaret's and Berwick Grammar School, located in Officer, Victoria, Australia. The St Margaret's senior girls campus and co-educational junior school are both located in Berwick. The head of campus is Dr Steven Middleton, with the current school principal being Ms Annette Rome. BGS has approximately 300 enrolled students and is part of the Victorian School of Performing Arts.
Berwick Grammar School was opened by then Governor of Victoria, David de Kretser, on 9 November 2009.
Between the years 2009 (the foundation year of the school) and 2014, the school progressively expanded from offering years 5 to 7, to eventually becoming a year 5 to 12 school. In 2016, it was announced that by 2018 the Year 5 and 6 classes would be relocated to the St Margaret's junior school campus in Berwick, to focus on co-educational opportunities within the junior school.
Houses
There are three houses at BGS. These are Forsyth (yellow), Richards (red) and Battye (blue). Each year they compete in numerous inter-house competitions to win the annual house cup.
