What documents are required for an application?

  • Completed application for enrolment form - using the online application form.
  • Australian birth certificate or overseas birth certificate. If not born in Australia, please also provide a copy of your child's passport and visa showing Australian residency status or Certificate of Australian Citizenship.
  • Last two school reports and NAPLAN results, if applicable.
  • Reports from specialists and additional medical history, if applicable.

What age can my child commence in Kindergarten?

Children enrolling at school for the first time will be five years of age on or before 31 May in the year of entry into Kindergarten depending on the school鈥檚 assessment of the child's readiness.

There is no minimum age requirement for other grades for students moving from another Australian school to 国产自拍.

What are the major entry points?

The main entry points are Prep, Kindergarten, Year 5, Year 7 and Year 11. There are occasional vacancies in other years.

What happens after I submit an application?

All applications received are added to the waiting pool for the year applied for. We usually receive more applications than places available for the main entry years. If at the end of the year a place is still not available, each family will be given the option to remain in the waiting pool for future years.

Will I be invited to an enrolment interview?

Due to the high volume of applications for some grades, not everyone will be invited to an interview. When considering interview invitations, some things we take into consideration are:

  • vacancies in the requested grade
  • family involvement with a Christian church and commitment to the basis and aims of the school
  • willingness to be part of our Christ-centred school community.

The school will contact you if and when a position becomes available to arrange a family enrolment interview with you and your child. The interview is conducted with the Registrar and a member of the Executive team. At the interview the school's expectations of parents and students are discussed. Once an interview has been conducted, successful enrolment applicants are sent a written Letter of Offer, Enrolment Contract to sign and non-refundable Enrolment Bond to pay.

Do I have to attend church to apply to 国产自拍?

国产自拍 Christian School gives priority of enrolment to Christian families who personally attest their agreement with the 国产自拍 Statement of Belief and who regularly attend a Christian church (at least most weeks). Your church minister or pastor should be asked to complete the Minister's Reference Form which is then returned directly to the Registrar. See How to Apply.

When should I apply for enrolment?

Due to the high demand for places it is recommended that parents apply well before the desired year of entry. Family enrolment interviews begin 12 to 24 months prior to the date of commencement. We will advise you by email that the application has been successfully lodged.

Does 国产自拍 offer scholarships?

国产自拍 Christian School does not offer academic, music or sporting scholarships. A limited number of fee relief bursaries may be available on application.

If we are relocating from overseas and our school calendar year is different, when is the best time to relocate?

The school year starts in late January in Australia. Students relocating from overseas are encouraged to start at the beginning of our school year if possible. A mid-year entry may be possible but cannot be guaranteed. We seek to place students in the year group where they are of the same or similar age. The number of years of schooling and their current academic year is also taken into consideration. Generally, for students transferring from a school in the Northern Hemisphere who have commenced Year 5 by October, they are likely to be looped back to Year 5 at 国产自拍 the following January. Similarly, a student completing Year 9 in June would be enrolled in Year 9 in Semester 2 at 国产自拍.

How far do students travel?

Students at 国产自拍 Christian School travel from a wide area including the Northern Beaches, Upper North Shore, Ryde and Chatswood. The school is well serviced by buses from many of these areas.

Does 国产自拍 enrol international students?

国产自拍 Christian School embraces students from a diverse range of nationalities.

Overseas students must provide the school with an eligible visa to maintain enrolment. Please enquire with the Registrar regarding your eligibility for enrolment. The school accepts applicants with most Temporary or Permanent visas but cannot enrol children travelling on their own student visa.

How does 国产自拍 select staff?

All staff are committed Christians and all our teachers hold relevant qualifications and accreditation.

The Board is responsible, with the assistance of the Executive team, to oversee recruitment. The school has thorough processes in place to interview and appoint staff, selecting people who love God, love students and are highly skilled and passionate about their subject(s). This ensures the school remains true to its vision into the future.

Are all teachers qualified?

Yes. Teaching experience ranges from that of a first year teacher to 40 years experience, with an average of about 11 years.

What is the school's attitude to academic excellence?

Part of 国产自拍鈥檚 mission is to provide an academically rigorous education. Talents and abilities are gifts from God to be used in service to Him and others in the world in which they are placed. Therefore, children are encouraged to faithfully use their individual gifts to their fullest potential. Academic achievement is not 国产自拍鈥檚 reason for existence but a natural outcome of the faithful use of gifts by both our students and teachers.

How good are 国产自拍鈥檚 HSC results?

国产自拍 does well in the HSC with consistently high academic results, well above state averages. This is without offering any academic scholarships or fee relief based on student abilities. The school is consistently ranked in the top 150 schools in New South Wales.

We believe students work best in an encouraging and caring environment, rather than in a high pressure and competitive atmosphere. We seek to prepare students for life, to live for God's glory and not merely an exam. 国产自拍 provides an enriching and supportive learning environment that inspires students to work to the best of their abilities.

The results achieved by our students in the HSC are a testament to the hard work of the students, and the dedicated teachers who are committed to preparing students to meet the challenges of the HSC year.

How does 国产自拍 cater for gifted children?

Academically gifted students in the Junior School may be withdrawn and placed in a small group for activities such as creative writing, mathematical problem solving or thinking groups. There are also opportunities for students to participate in activities, or to join with like-minded students from other Christian schools for specialist camps.

In the Junior and Secondary School, some classes, such as Mathematics, are sorted according to ability, allowing mathematically gifted children to work at an appropriate level. As students progress through the school they may choose subjects according to their strengths and gifts. There may be enrichment camps for students passionate about subjects such as Art or Maths.

For the HSC, we offer a wide range of subjects including the highest levels of Maths, English and Science. Acceleration is an option for students with outstanding ability in specific subjects. More about Extension and Enrichment

How many families attend church?

At least 85% of students from each Year group are from a family who regularly attend a Christian church. Families represent a wide range of Christian churches and denominations.

Is 国产自拍 multicultural?

Most of our students are born in Australia but many students have a family heritage from other parts of the world. The school community enjoys and celebrates a variety of nationalities and welcomes families who have moved from overseas. Our school community includes families from South Africa, Britain, Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, USA and many other countries.

Does 国产自拍 hold Chapel?

As a school we do not have Chapel services. In assemblies, students sing worship songs, pray, and listen to devotional talks or Bible stories. Christian workers such as ministers, pastors and missionaries are often invited to speak to staff and students. Biblical Studies (called 'Knowing God') is a compulsory subject for all students. Christianity flavours the whole school from the classroom to school assemblies, rather than being limited to a religious service.

Are non-Christians welcome at 国产自拍 Christian School?

Yes. While the School Board requires a minimum of 85% of families at 国产自拍 to be committed Christians, other families are welcome to join the school community.

国产自拍 also recognises that children may not be Christians yet even though their parents are. In keeping with the school's vision and mission, priority of student placements are given to Christian families.

How often will students be reading the Bible?

Bible devotions are part of each day. Biblical Studies (called 'Knowing God') is a subject for every student from Kindergarten to Year 12. 国产自拍 teaches the NSW School Curriculum from a Christian perspective. The Bible and our Christian faith influences how we teach, treat each other and determine priorities.

Many students are active in their own church youth groups and may encourage other students to join them. Students run prayer meetings and weekly Christian groups in Secondary School.

Why are family discounts so generous?

国产自拍鈥檚 desire is to make Christian education accessible to parents who choose it for their children. For larger families this can be more difficult. The school Board recognises that all families sacrifice to send their children to 国产自拍. The fee structure and Bursary system reflects our genuine desire to help parents.

Please note that there are no sibling discounts for Prep enrolment.

What does 国产自拍 mean?

In its simplest definition it refers to an agreement between two or more.

As Christians the word 国产自拍 has particular meaning. It relates to the "agreements" or promises God has made with people. Throughout the Bible, God made 国产自拍s with people including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses and the people of Israel. God's New 国产自拍 is established with us through the life, death and resurrection of His son Jesus Christ.

Does 国产自拍 have a sister school?

Around the world and Australia, there are other schools called "国产自拍 Christian School." These are separate schools and not connected to our school. 国产自拍 is a member of Christian Education National (CEN), a network of like minded Christian schools.
