Christian schools are wonderful faith-filled communities, where children are cared for and thrive.
Activists are working tirelessly to misrepresent Christian schools and stop them from influencing the next generation for Christ.
They will not stop. They oppose biblical truth.
People like you who are, or have been, the beneficiaries of Christian schooling should speak up now to defend Christian schools. If you don’t, the mission of Christian schools could be thwarted. They may even be shut down.
You have the right to choose an education for your child that reflects your Christian beliefs. This is a key part of the right to freedom of religion that is enshrined in international law.
If you, your child, or grandchild has had a positive experience at a Christian school – recently or in the past – please share a few words to say so.
Thank you for standing up for our Christian schools!

The nuns at this school were totally committed to education of the children, including their religious education. And religious education is obviously more than learning facts, it is about moulding character in such a way that children can become their best, being guided by God all the way.
I attended a wonderful Christian school in the 1980s and my kids go to one now. Our school is a very special place to the families who attend. It is a place of warmth, support and community, something that is not so easy to come by today. The staff at our school care deeply for their students. They nurture them academically, emotionally and socially, in every aspect of their growth. Everyone is treated with respect and care because the school is grounded upon biblical principles of love and hope, and Jesus is always at the centre of showing the kids how to live in this way.
All our four children went through Christian schooling. We personally had been involved in that school for 26 years. It is reassuring to know that children can be taught according to a worldview that is not subject to the whims and agendas of society and government. Christian schooling is fundamental to all families who desire to have God (and not man!) central to all of life.
I have experienced the differences between a public school and a Christian school. Every time I go to Waverley Christian College, the staff at the reception always give me a big smile and ask if I need their help. Teachers and teaching aids are all very supportive and so nice and friendly to the students. That's a huge difference! Please protect Christian schools!
My son is in his first year of schooling and the way he has been embraced and supported by his teachers, especially in his young faith, is so important to us as parents. He struggles socially, and his teachers not only support him to grow socially, but help through prayer and the opportunity to express faith in a developmentally appropriate way through chapel.
