Meriden is a medium-sized independent Anglican school for girls from Kindergarten to Year 12. There is also a Pre-kindergarten for boys and girls. The School is conveniently located close to Strathfield train station and bus depot. At Meriden, our priority is our girls. We aim to teach them, care for them and help them to grow and develop academically, physically, emotionally, spiritually and socially. Small classes, high standards, well-qualified and passionate teachers, a broad curriculum and good facilities result in excellent academic results. Sport plays an important part of life at Meriden. Approx. 20 sports are available at Meriden with recent successes in athletics, rhythmic gymnastics, tennis and waterpolo. Many girls also participate in music at Meriden. The orchestras, concert bands and choral ensembles all enjoy regular success in concerts, eisteddfods and championships. A wide-ranging co-curricular program gives every girl an opportunity to be involved in the life of the School. This includes debating, dance, public speaking, chess, many Student Christian Groups, Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, drama, outdoor education etc. At Meriden we aim to help our girls develop into confident and articulate global citizens of integrity, compassion, creativity, courage and optimism.
