Hornsby Girls' High School

The 13 faculties in the school are English, Human Society and Its Environment, geography, languages, mathematics, music, personal development health and physical education (PDHPE), science, social sciences, technology and applied studies (TAS), and visual arts. ==Co-curriculum==

Hornsby Girls' offers students the opportunity to participate in a number of musical groups, namely the Concert Band, Symphonic Band, Jazz Band and String Orchestra through their co-curricular music program. Smaller musical outfits are other outlets, such as the several chamber ensembles made up from those students who already play an instrument and wish to be involved in extra-curricular musical groups. Other musical groups are the Junior and Senior Vocal Ensembles, who participate in a range of competitions, including the MacDonald's Performing Arts Competition and School Spectacular. In 2008, they also appeared in Battle of the Choirs, screened on Channel 7. In 2010, a small chamber vocal ensemble was introduced with the aim of allowing some students a small ensemble experience. ==Notable alumnae==
