Annesley Junior School is an independent day school for girls and boys aged from two years old to year 6, located in Wayville, a suburb of Adelaide, South Australia.
Annesley Junior School has a co-educational early learning centre for children between the ages of two and five, and a primary school for reception to year 6. The early learning centre operates as a long day care centre (child care centre), open 49 weeks of the year. The early learning centre (kindergarten) and the primary school's before and after school care programs are Child Care Benefit–approved.
Annesley Junior School is affiliated with the Association of Independent Schools of South Australia, and the Junior School Heads Association of Australia (JSHAA).
Annesley has been an IB World School since December 2005. The school has a music program and children from reception to year 6 learn French as a second language.
Annesley Junior School is located on a single campus in Wayville, opposite the Adelaide Parklands, 500 metres from the Adelaide CBD. Notable facilities include the historic 'Gillingham Hall' seating the whole school and a Chapel.
Annesley Junior School's academic programs include the Primary Years Program of the International Baccalaureate (IBPYP).
There are two intakes into reception each year, in terms one and three. This will continue from 2014 when South Australian government schools will move to a single intake.
Annesley Junior School was founded in 1902 as Methodist Ladies' College (MLC), at the site of the former Malvern Grammar School, with 26 students enrolled. In 1903, the school was moved to the site of the former Way College for boys on Greenhill Road at Wayville.
In 1977, a Union of the Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian Churches took place, forming the Uniting Church in Australia. MLC subsequently took the name Annesley College, the maiden name of Susanna Wesley, the mother of John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist Church.
