History
Ormiston College opened in 1988 on a 16-acre site, with 162 students in year 1 to year 5.[2] Ormiston College Limited, a non-profit, public company, was formed to develop the school and the Board of Directors was established to assist in the administration of the College. Over time, additional land was purchased and facilities were built. The school expanded to include a Senior School (starting from year 8) in 1991, Pre-school (Prep) in 2000 and the Early Learning Centre (Childcare Centre) in 2007.[1]

Ormiston College has a range of quality student facilities including the Lingo Lin Performing Arts Theatre (which houses a theatre, drama studio, and music rooms), the Somerset Sports Centre, an Athletics Precinct,[3] an Aquatic Centre, a science centre (with physics, biology, and chemistry laboratories), and the Centre for Learning & Innovation. The College was awarded as the winner of the 2021 Australian Library and Information Association's Library Design Award.[4]
