Located in the heart of the Gold Coast, Somerset College is one of Australia's leading independent Primary and Secondary education providers. Somerset College, a co-educational day school from Prep to Year 12, is located at Mudgeeraba, Gold Coast, and is situated on approximately 22 hectares of land. The site upon which Somerset College is built was originally used for dairy farming, was uniquely rural and owned by the original pioneering families to the area. Since 1983 the surrounding countryside has undergone considerable urban development.
