Overview
Chatswood High School is a government-funded co-educational bi-modal partially academically selective and comprehensive secondary day school, located in Chatswood, a suburb in the Lower North Shore of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Established in 1959, the school caters to approximately 1,500 students from Year 7 to Year 12, especially known for its multicultural diversity with its connections to sister schools in Asia. Chatswood High School's campus is situated on extensive grounds at Centennial Avenue on the former Carr-Horden estate and is surrounded by remnant bushland.
History
The school had a cadet unit in the early days – for boys only. Girls wore wide-brimmed straw hats and gloves.
In the late 1970s a number of demountable buildings were deployed to provide facilities for the school's Intensive English Centre, however, these demountables are no longer in use due to construction starting in early 2022.
