Cranbrook School, a prestigious Anglican independent day and boarding institution, stands majestically overlooking Sydney Harbour. Founded in 1918 as a sanctuary for the pursuit of truth and knowledge, Cranbrook School has been the epitome of academic excellence for over a century. In a significant chapter of its history, the original classroom building, the Perkins Building, constructed in 1919-1920, recently underwent a remarkable transformation.
