The Scots PGC College is an independent, co-educational, Uniting Church, day and boarding school, located in Warwick, Queensland, Australia. The College currently caters for approximately 450 international and Australian students from Prep to year 12, including 180 boarders.〔 Located on two campuses, the College is currently divided into three age-based 'Learning Precincts' - a Junior School, a Middle School and a Senior School. In 2008, a new Performing Arts Centre was opened to cater specifically for Drama and Music. The Scots PGC College is a member of the Junior School Heads Association of Australia〔(JSHAA Queensland- Member Directory ) (accessed:26-06-2007)〕 and The Associated Schools.〔 ==History== The Presbyterian Girls' College and The Scots College were established as boarding schools for girls and boys in 1918 and 1919 respectively, by Messrs. B. T. DeConlay, R. J. Shilliday, and W. R. Black, to serve the needs of the large Scottish population in the area and provide a solid Presbyterian education. The two separate schools were amalgamated in 1970, and this new co-educational school was named The Scots PGC College. Scots PGC became a school of the Uniting Church in 1977, following Church union. 1995 saw the College Council move to adopt a new school badge designed by Neil Bonnell (Principal from 1985 to 1994), and a new school motto, ''"Always Aiming Higher"''. Prior to this the badges and mottos of both the original schools were used. The mottos were ''"Semper Petens Alta"'' ("Always Aiming Higher") for the boys, and ''"E Labore Dulcedo"'' ("Sweetness Out of Labour") for the girls.〔(The Scots PGC College- History ) (accessed:26-06-2007)〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scots PGC College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
