Our Heritage

Steeped in tradition, The Cottesloe School boasts a rich history that has shaped its educational philosophy and student experience.

Cottesloe Heritage Project

Welcome to a treasure trove of Cottesloe memories.

In honour of our 65th anniversary, we're thrilled to unveil the Cottesloe Heritage Project. This online collection is a place for our entire school community – past, present, and future – to explore the rich history of The Cottesloe School.

Embark on a journey down memory lane:

  • Browse through photographs that capture decades of school life 
  • Relive the stories told in past newsletters and publications
  • See photos that showcase the evolution of The Cottesloe School, formerly known as 'Wing Secondary School'

A project made possible by many

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Heritage Project Team for their invaluable support. Their contribution has made this permanent digital archive a reality, ensuring our school's history is accessible to everyone. 

A special thank you to Makoto Nakama, a former staff member, the author of, 'A Glimpse of the History of Education in Wing' in 2011.
