St Luke's Grammar School began in February 1993, following the amalgamation of three Sydney Anglican Schools Corporation schools on Sydney's Northern Beaches: Roseby Preparatory (Junior) School, Peninsula Grammar (Boys) School and St Luke's Anglican College for Girls.
The new K-12 co-educational school opened with 43 staff and 488 students, under the principalship of Mr John Scott. During the first year, the School started its first Cottage (Preschool) class with 11 children, located in a house adjacent to the School. By the following year, the first Master Plan was unveiled, which involved the building of a multi-purpose hall as well as a new administration building and Technological and Applied Studies block.
The School was expanded by the introduction of a second Kindergarten class in 1995 and a third Year 7 in 1996. As a result of Mr Scott's Study Leave to the UK and USA in 1997, St Luke's Middle School commenced in 1999. This lay the foundation for a fully double streamed Junior School and a fully triple streamed Senior School by 2001.
The school site has seen extensive building work over the years. In February 1997 the multi-purpose hall was officially opened by the Archbishop of Sydney. In 1998 work commenced on the St Luke's Junior Centre, accommodating classrooms for Cottage, Kindergarten and Year 1 and this was opened in 1999. A multimillion-dollar three-storey building housing the Library Resource Centre, Administration Offices and TAS opened in 2002. A third storey was added to the Junior School buildings in 2005, which involved the construction of the Link Building and the creation of a Common Room for Year 12 students.
