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 most beautiful thing about teaching in my Christian school is that the joy and love of God surrounds and encourages us all, no matter what challenges confront us.
I did Year 12 at St Peters and was so grateful for the opportunities to grow and be challenged as a young person exploring faith. I appreciated having chapel to sing and listen to the Bible. I appreciated having a student Christian group that made me think and figure out what it meant to believe or not believe. I'm so grateful that the Christian ethos meant that we were encouraged to be serve in the community and raise money for all kinds of charities.
Where there is no fear of being reprimanded for being offensive at the mention of God (as per state school).
My children have been educated from year 1 to 12 within Catholic and Lutheran schools. Our overwhelming experience has been acceptance, love, encouragement to overcome difficulties and joy in the common belief among the families of God’s purpose for our children. Knowledge without a clear purpose and calling for using it wisely is wasted.
Christian education is far more than providing a good and moral education. It's about teaching a Biblical worldview; the values that undergird the Christian faith and Biblical principles that reinforce what parents are seeking. I have been employed in Christian education for over 30 years and as a parent in Christian education for 22 years.
