Ormiston House
The school’s junior school, Ormiston House, was established in 1848. It was located at various sites until it moved to St. John’s Avenue, Mont Albert, in 1936. Ormiston is the oldest girls' primary school on the Australian mainland. It became the junior school of Camberwell Girls Grammar in 1964.
Ormiston was sold and in 2008 a new facility was built closer to the senior school.

Famous quotes containing the word house:
“A nation grown free in a single day is a child born with the limbs and the vigour of a man, who would take a drawn sword for his rattle, and set the house in a blaze that he might chuckle over the splendour.”
