Southern Christian College

Southern Christian College is a growing educational community that was established in 1986 to serve the local community. The College currently provides a rich educational programme for children from 2 years of age (at the Kingston Early Learning Centre) to Grade 12. Students develop academically, socially, spiritually and physically through their engagement in an educational environment that is outward looking, nurturing and provides support and extension.

SCC has been educating boys and girls for over 35 years in a single campus school with a family atmosphere. The College seeks to develop young men and women of faith and character. Students are provided with a broad programme that includes specialists right down to Kindergarten and vibrant language and arts programmes in the senior school.

Southern Christian College is a Christian, faith-based organisation serving the community. The College aims to provide a holistic education that develops a community of learners who are balanced spiritually, intellectually, physically, emotionally, creatively and socially.

The College aims to develop lifelong independent and cooperative learners through a Christ-centred quality education that inspires and equips young people for life. The College promotes an understanding of, and appreciation for, the teachings of Christ through the Scriptures and His life being foundational to our relationships and practice.

This understanding is demonstrated through:

• Partnering with parents and community in the education of children.
• Expressing faith as caring and respectful members of a global community, acting in ways that promote social justice and international mindedness.
• Celebrating the knowledge, goodness and grace of God in creation and salvation.

Southern Christian College is a growing school community situated on the crest of the Kingston hills, overlooking the beautiful Kingston valley and Mount Wellington’s southern slopes. It is a vibrant and stimulating learning environment, characterised by a strong culture of educational innovation, which draws upon the best available educational thinking and practice – both new and old.

At Southern Christian College we offer a Christ-centred education celebrating life and learning in a creative and supportive environment for all children.
