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!

As someone who values learning the intricacies of the Christian faith and understands that this faith can help me to be more caring and helpful to others, I rely on good Christian education through my church. As Christianity teaches that Christians should follow laws of government (that don’t undermine God’s teachings), a Christian population would be an asset to this country in their focus on following laws, helping others and living in peace. This should be something any government nurtures.
I thrived as a person and as a teacher in all the Christian schools I have worked in. I have witnessed first hand and so appreciated the way they were structured, ...... parents, students, and staff were privy to the vision and boundaries set in place so not only academic goals could be set but along the way, staff worked in unison to encourage, work with those who struggled and celebrate all achievements.
All 3 of my children attended Christians schools. They and their classmates were all treated with care and respect. They were provided an environment to thrive and grow in. Even the students who were "non binary" were treated as equals.
My daughter started at Brindabella Christian College at the start of Year 7 and is now in Year 10. After her first week at the school, she said this school was different because there wasn’t strong peer pressure and she felt she could be herself. The teachers go above and beyond to care for her as a whole person and work hard to give her feedback that will help her to improve. I’ve also seen her gain more confidence and find a lovely group of friends. We love the Christian values that are taught at Brindabella and love the positive culture.
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.
