Eynesbury Senior College is one of the oldest colleges in Adelaide for high school students from grades 1 through 12. The institution specializes in preparing students for successful admission to the university. Moreover, this is the first college in Australia, which began to engage in pre-university training for high school students.
The history of the college begins in 1990: the institution got its name in honor of the historic Ainsbury House, located on Old Beller Road in Kingswood. Although the college moved to a larger campus on Franklin Street in 1996, Ainsbury House with locals is still associated with Eynesbury College.
Until 2001, Eynesbury College remained a college with two campuses, but by the end of the year, all classes were still combined on a campus on Franklin Street. Also, from 2001 to 2010, Eynesbury Senior College existed next door to the English language school ELICOS, and then, in 2010, the English school and the Foundation program moved to the building on Coglin Street.
Since its foundation, Eynesbury Senior College has been an international educational institution, so I am glad to see not only Australian students, but also students from other countries. The international branch of Eynesbury International College offers various educational programs: high school, Foundation, undergraduate diploma, English language study programs.
To get acquainted with the educational process of the college, there are trial days, during which the candidates study in the classroom for one day, eat in the dining room and do the rest of the work as ordinary college students.
The main advantage of studying at Eynesbury College is the easier stage of admission after college to the University of Adelaide or the University of South Australia, with which the institution has close partnerships.
