Meet our Principal

2016 - Current

Mr Adam Heath 

Our students are the beating heart of Ballarat Grammar. Their energy, joy and optimism power our entire school community.

As educators and mentors, we are responsible for nurturing their curiosity, guiding them to find their purpose and supporting their passions. Our students are encouraged to explore their potential and how they can contribute to the world.

In addition to building their intellectual curiosity, we aim to ensure that each student understands they belong here. As Principal, I see that students thrive when they know they are part of a school community that respects and celebrates their differences. Whether their enthusiasm lies in the arts, academics, sport, agriculture or elsewhere, each person’s individuality is valued here. Our students understand that success is defined only by their aspirations and preparedness to work hard.

Your decision to allow Ballarat Grammar to join the next chapter of your child’s life is a great honour. From our experienced Board and leadership team to our passionate teachers and professional support staff, we understand the magnitude of our responsibility and the trust parents place in us. Guided by our long history and Anglican values, we remain committed to supporting our students in discovering what is possible nurturing them to emerge resilient and proud of their achievements and courageously create the very best future.

Adam Heath, Principal

“Our focus is on the development of the whole child. We support students to develop a genuine belief in service just as much as we nurture them to achieve outstanding academic results that create opportunities for the future."

Adam Heath

Principal

The care, safety and wellbeing of children and young people are central and fundamental responsibilities of the School. We are firmly committed to fostering a child-safe culture that provides an environment where students are safe and feel safe, where their participation is valued, their views respected, and their voices heard in decisions that affect their lives. Ballarat Grammar values diversity and strictly prohibits any racist or discriminatory practices. All members of our school community share the responsibility to care for children and young people by promptly raising any concerns regarding their safety, promoting their wellbeing, and protecting them from all forms of harm or abuse.
