Georges River College
Georges River College GRCis a learning community in the southern suburbs of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is an amalgam of four state schools operated by the NSW Department of Education and Training. The college consists of four campuses: Peakhurst High School (Years 7 – 10 coeducational) Peakhurst Campus

Penshurst Girls High School (Years 7 – 10 girls) Penshurst Campus

Hurstville Boys High school (Years 7 – 10 boys) Hurstville Campus

Oatley Senior High School (Years 11 – 12 coeducational) Oatley Campus

Georges River College was established in 2001 when the Oatley Senior Campus opened with Year 11 students drawn from the previous Year 10 classes from each of the three middle campuses. The Year 12 students of 2001 remained to complete their HSC year at their home campuses. In 2002, the middle campuses became specialist 7-10 schools.

College Principal

From 2001 to 2007 the position of College Principal was rotated amongst the principals of the four campuses. The founding College Principal was Bob Ramsay, Principal of the Hurstville Boys Campus. Prior to the appointment of the permanent College Principal, the administrative functions of the College were carried out by the College Deputy Principal, Barry Ffrench. In 2008, the position of College Principal was made substantive and, following a merit-selection process, Carol Spittles was appointed. The College Principal has an office at each campus and attends each campus one day each week on rotation.
