Principal’s Message

Dear Parents, Students, Past Pupils, and Well‑Wishers, This year is a momentous one for Bishop’s College as we celebrate 150 years of being Blessed & Benevolent, since our founding in 1875! As we mark this sesquicentennial milestone, I am delighted to welcome you to our updated school website and to a year of gratitude, reflection, and joyful celebration. Rooted in a rich Anglican heritage, Bishop’s College has spent a century and a half nurturing generation of young women through an inclusive, holistic education, shaped by our values of tradition, community, and unity in diversity. Today, more than ever, we remain committed to providing a well‑rounded learning experience that honours our past while embracing the future. This year our theme of charity, scholarship, and unbounded spirit will be carried out to the fullest with many events, projects and programs. Our academic curriculum continues to challenge each student to reach her full potential through innovative, child‑centred approaches. Learning is further enriched by a vibrant programme of sport, aesthetics and community service. 16 sports, 45 clubs, societies, bands, choirs and dance troupes, offer every Bishopian the chance to explore her passions and develop into a confident, compassionate, and socially conscious young woman. As our 150^th initiatives, we have introduced the International O’level (Pearson Edexcel curriculum) Sign Language for the Primary, and Comparative Religious Studies for the middle school, as mandatory subjects from now on (Please see our updated School Profile for more.) I take great pride in the extraordinary dedication of our academic and non‑academic staff, who in the face of recent global challenges have ensured that teaching, learning, and co‑curricular life not only continue, but flourish. Their resilience, creativity and care, embody the very spirit that has carried Bishop’s College through 150 remarkable years. With the steadfast support of our Governing Body, the extremely active Parent Teacher Association, loyal past pupils, and generous friends and well-wishers, I am confident that Bishop’s College will stride into the next century and a half with renewed purpose and pride. Together, we remain steeped in tradition, admired for our values, and known for our excellence, ever guided by our motto “Non Sibi Sed Omnibus” – “Not for self but for all.” May God bless us all, and may God continue to bless Bishop’s College as we celebrate 150 years of grace, growth, and gratitude.
