News & Events

At Prince Alfred College we place a high value on pastoral care and wellbeing. We are committed to developing young men of character and purpose, who make a positive contribution to society. Pastoral care at the College stands alongside our academic teaching and learning, and our co-curricular programs. It is through these three spheres of student life that we find opportunities for learning, personal growth, and development.

It has been a busy 12 months since I joined Prince Alfred College and I am incredibly proud of what has been achieved in that time, by our dedicated staff and students. I am also excited about what lies ahead of us in the next few years as we continue to deliver on our strategic priorities.

On 8 March 2023, close to 150 Prince Alfred College students participated in the 62nd South Australian Hamann School Mathematics Competition (HSMC). The HSMC is South Australia’s elite mathematics competition and arguably one of the most challenging of the competitions our boys undertake.

Our international students are building closer connections with international students from other schools.

Congratulations to Old Scholar Max Kirkby (PAC 2004-2018) who has been awarded a prestigious Rhodes Scholarship to attend Oxford University in 2023.

On the 16th of October, the newly appointed Prefects departed PAC at 7am to Scott’s Creek, to begin their Prefect Development Camp. The camp is integral for the boys to form bonds with each other, understand their role as a Prefect and to develop leadership skills which will be important for their character and as a Prefect in 2022/23 and beyond.
