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!

I sent my two kids to BCC because I did not want our family values undermined by state schools. Some simple examples of this was not celebrating Halloween, and having Easter and Christmas being more than just bunnies and Santa. I was very happy with choice - my kids' academic and social outcomes were certainly pleasing.
Solid Christian foundations are vital for a productive & fruitful life. We are spiritual beings with a body & a soul. Christian schools encourage & support the transition to the right destination to enjoy that eternity. It is wrong not to nurture & strengthen the spirit. Children are also taught how to love & forgive. Humans highly value freedom of choice to nurture others & themselves. Real Christian schools are a wonderful means of extended family for which I will be forever grateful.
I taught as a teacher at St Patrick's College, Launceston as well as at public high schools and the pastoral care for individuals there stood out in comparison. Christian schools are real family orientated communities that seek to do good and look out for each other especially the vulnerable as Jesus has taught us. They also teach social justice and care for the poor in practical ways. This is non-existent in public schools.
I worked at the College for over 7 years full time, where my wife has worked for almost 30 years as a teacher, our daughter did Kinder to year 12 there and we know the inner workings of this Christian College very well. It is an awesome place to work in, and does a fantastic job of schooling children in preparation for their lives of making a positive impact for greatness, Godliness and excellence in Australia, or anywhere in the world.
I love the fact that my children are in an environment that daily builds upon the values that we teach them at home where Jesus is the centre. In addition to this they are also very well supported academically. The teachers are very caring and provide the children with what they need to become the best version of themselves both spiritually and intellectually.
