The Pittwater House Schools

Pittwater House is a non-denominational co-educational non-selective, independent school, located on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia.

It was founded in 1961 as a preparatory school for boys. A girls college followed, opening in 1975. The school's founder, Rex Henry Morgan, was awarded an MBE in 1969 and was made a member of the Order of Australia (AM) in 2002 for his contribution to education.

Pittwater House offers a private school education for students from Pre-school to Year 12, and is run coherently in three divisions:

The Junior School: Early Childhood Centre, Junior Girls' College and Boys' Preparatory School
The Girls College: Year 7 -12
The Boys Grammar School: Year 7 - 12

The school offers gender-specific teaching combined with the social benefits of a co-educational campus - an education model known as twin-schooling, parallel education or diamond schooling and supported by acclaimed parent educator, Steve Biddulph AM.
