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!

Our two children attended Citipointe all through primary school because they supported our faith-based values and beliefs. It was a choice that personally cost us school fees instead of free education available in our state public schools. We have never regretted making that choice and are grateful that the option was available. Our children are now grown and have children of their own - and our grandchildren now attend. The school has helped shape our children to become who they are - responsible and well-adjusted citizens who contribute to the community and nation they are proud to belong to. Best of all, they maintain an active Christian faith that has not been eroded over the years.
I have had Christian schooling from kindergarten to year 12 and could not have wished for anything different! The Christian principles that shaped the culture and guidelines of our school were what gave me the freedom and opportunities to feel safe, secure and loved by the entire school community. Without the influence of Christian principles on my schooling career, I am certain I would have had a much more chaotic and harsh experience, and I would not be the person I am today. I am so thankful for my Christian school.
Around 1986, several Christian families, including me, decided to begin a parent controlled Christian school... it had approximately 50 students to start with, and demountable buildings and very little else. That school grew into what is now Kingsway Christian College with more than 1,000 kids from kindergarten to Year 12. 3 of my children attended, and now their children, my grandchildren, are graduating from this wonderful school, which originated from the Christian vision and principles of families who worship God and followed His Son, 36 years ago…
Two of my godsons are past pupils of Grace Christian College (formerly Mt Carmel Christian School). They received wonderful nurturing care and teaching of the Christian values of the sanctity of life, compassion and respect for all, honesty, integrity, the responsibility to work for a living, stewardship of resources etc. The education and character training received at this Christian school has provided an excellent foundation for life.
My children and grandchildren were very blessed to attend this school. It was a very caring and loving environment that was in line with our Christian beliefs. They received an excellent education which set a firm foundation for their ongoing education and life ahead. We are very thankful to have been able to educate our children in a Christian school.
