Shire Christian School

Shire Christian School is a nondenominational, co-educational Prep to Year 12 school in Sydney’s south, well known for providing an excellent Christian education. The school has a strong pastoral care program and seeks to create a culture where every child is part of a school community that feels like family. In this caring environment, students learn, grow and flourish. Shire Christian students perform strongly in external tests and exams like NAPLAN and the HSC, and the school attributes this to bringing together a strong learning framework and a caring and nurturing environment. Teachers at the school desire to see every child establish meaningful relationships and develop skills and qualities that will equip them to embrace life’s challenges. Shire Christian School teachers are highly qualified and are committed to receiving ongoing feedback on the quality of their work, engaging with research on the best ways to improve student learning. All staff at the school are Christians, involved in their local church and are committed to living their lives according to what is taught in the Bible. Students undertake Christian Studies as a distinct subject, and they are also encouraged to engage with a Christian perspective across the rest of their courses. Shire Christian School has stimulating and academically rigorous programs and provides meaningful, targeted support for students who may struggle in particular areas of their learning. The school offers exciting opportunities for students to develop their skills in sport and creative endeavours, enabling each student to thrive.
