SQUARE
Scotch Oakburn is the only Tasmanian school to be a member of the Round Square association of international schools.
Round Square schools all share consistent principles and priorities. There are six IDEALS of Round Square. They are Internationalism, Democracy, Environment, Adventure, Leadership and Service. The IDEALS form the basis of all that we do at the College.
