WELCOME FROM THE HEADMASTER

Dr David Mulford

At Newington, our aim is to motivate boys to be well-rounded individuals, fully prepared for the rigours of adulthood in the twenty-first century.

We believe that in order to lead successful lives boys must be motivated to learn, achieve, excel, explore, unite, express, lead, contribute and belong and this motivation is fundamental to everything we offer at Newington. Primary to all we do at Newington is to ensure boys enjoy their time at school, for without this we cannot fulfil any of our other goals.

Newington’s four pillars of education, namely academic, pastoral, spiritual and cocurricular elements are the foundations of the College’s liberal and holistic education.

We encourage our boys to be open-minded and tolerant, to think freely and not be bound by traditional or conventional ideas. Inherent in our approach is a deep understanding of how boys learn to win with humility and lose with dignity. We are a diverse community and we celebrate the fact that our College truly represents the cosmopolitan nature of our modern society. We embrace boys of all faiths and denominations and from every geographic area. For Newington boys, this means a genuine experience of the “real world” that they will work and live in after school.

On this website you will gain an idea of the diversity of our community, the wide range of facilities and activities available to the students and the commitment of our large teaching and support staff to providing the best educational environment for our boys.

I look forward to welcoming you to the Newington Community.
