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!

My son attended Xavier high school and when his father died suddenly the school gave both him and me support that was above and beyond all expectations. The school always encouraged him and believed in him which I believe has contributed to him being the confident and caring young man he is today.
My husband headed up and taught in Christian schools from 1978 until he retired in 2008 and we have five children who all attended and thrived at the different schools. They have become strong and responsible members of our Australian society and I am very thankful for the caring and proficient environment in which they were educated and trained.
We were thankful for the opportunity to have our children educated in a school which adhered to the same values we were teaching them at home.
I attended an independent Christian school from year 5 to year 12 and it provided me with a high quality education. I learnt skills in numeracy, literacy, communication and everything in between. Adolescence is a very impressionable, formative season and attending a faithful Christian school was absolutely pivotal in showing me what it means to be to be a kind and active member of society. Having firm, absolute morals and biblical truth knitted into the inner workings of the school provided the firm foundation that young people need to thrive. Christian schools are Christian and should be allowed to align with their faith, just like political groups are political and are allowed to align with their own beliefs.
My daughter love teachers and school children because there was an atmosphere of anti-bullying and love. No discrimination, they all see each other as one. There is a culture of love between pupils and teachers. There is a loving and disciplined atmosphere in the school. It is a good place for children and family.
