Kambala is a girls' day and boarding school in Sydney's Rose Bay offering Years 7–12 that blend the IB Diploma Programme with the NSW HSC. The IB pathway began in 2010 and sits alongside NSW HSC subjects, giving students a choice of university-style study or NSW HSC. In the early years, students follow a broad core—English, History, Mathematics, Science, Music, PDHPE, Religious Education, Technology and Visual Arts—with two languages (French, Latin or Mandarin). Year 8 adds Geography and the Altius program to develop higher-order thinking; Years 9–10 widen elective options. In senior years, students may pursue either pathway or both. The campus includes Hampshire House (Early Learning), sport facilities such as an indoor pool, playing fields and a gym, and spaces for drama and music, with performance opportunities at Sydney Opera House. Kambala runs the Duke of Edinburgh Award and a Global Citizenship Diploma to foster leadership and global awareness.
