About
Cranbrook is an Anglican independent day and boarding school for boys, Pre-school to Year 12.
Our vision is to be a world class school which encourages and enables all of our students to explore, enjoy and fulfil their potential.
Cranbrook possesses a distinctive, and increasingly relevant, educational philosophy which reaches back to the School’s foundation; it is based upon integrity as well as the warm rigour of the great liberal tradition of education and includes both a love of cultural and co-curricular breadth, and respect for individuality. We energise the educational environment by offering a well-rounded and distinctive schooling both within and beyond the curriculum, and give powerful pastoral support to each student in our care.
As a school we are aiming for the development of potential and a recognition of each other’s individuality and value. A sincerity and wholeness, and a realisation of humanity’s possibilities.
The School motto esse quam videri means 'to be rather than to seem to be' and this resonates through all that we do.
