Should my daughter attend with me?

Yes, if she can. Our Discover Ruyton Tour is designed for both students and parents, and if your daughter is able to attend, it is a wonderful opportunity for her to also experience the School firsthand. She will have the chance to tour our facilities, hear from meet some of our students and ask any questions she may have. 

We understand this is not always possible, so her attendance is not essential, however she is most welcome. Many families find it valuable for their daughter to visit the campus and gain a genuine feel for the Ruyton community and environment. 

Is this tour suitable for both Junior and Senior School families?

Yes. Our Discover Ruyton Tour is designed for families considering entry from Prep through to Year 12. The Principal’s presentation provides an overview of learning, wellbeing and opportunities across both the Junior School and Senior School. 

Following the presentation, families can choose to tour either the Junior School or Senior School, depending on their area of interest. Where time permits, we will do our best to facilitate both tours. 

During morning tea, expert staff from across the School will also be available to answer questions specific to your daughter’s year level, interests and individual circumstances. 

We've visited Ruyton before. Is this tour still relevant for us?

If you have attended a Discover Ruyton Tour recently, you may find that another tour is not necessary at this stage. However, if it has been a few years since your last visit, this can be a wonderful opportunity to see what is new across the School and to meet our Principal, Kim Bence, who commenced in 2025. 

If you have more specific questions, or would prefer a smaller group or personalised experience, a tailored tour may be a better option for you. We also offer dedicated tours for our Early Learning Centre, Junior School and Senior School. 

To discuss the best option for your family, please contact our Admissions Team +61 (3) 9819 2422 or email admissions@ruyton.vic.edu.au.  

Do I need to prepare anything in advance?

All you need to do is register before you arrive. This helps us better understand your areas of interest, including your daughter’s year level, intended year of entry and which tour you may wish to join during your visit. It also assists us in planning the morning and ensuring the experience runs smoothly for all families. 

Morning tea will be provided, and we encourage you to come with any questions you may have - our team is here to help.
