Overview:

Partnering with Parents – Growing the Next Godly Generation!

Located adjacent to Lavarack Barracks, James Cook University and The Townsville Hospital, Annandale Christian College provides continuous, quality education (Kindergarten to Yr 12) from a Christian perspective. The emphasis of the college is educating each child as a whole - academically, emotionally, physically and spiritually - and, towards this goal, offers a range of academic, sporting and cultural pursuits to develop God-given abilities.

The college sees itself as a purposeful, educational community. Success is measured by the qualities of the people (staff, students and parents) and the relationships between them as well as academic, cultural and sporting achievements. The leadership team and staff consider it a privilege to work in partnership with parents, and have developed strong networks to support parents in the education of their children. Enthusiastic, caring Christian teachers work explicitly to know each student by name, and encourage each one to strive for excellence in learning and Godly character in order to reach their full potential. As a result, the college has forged a strong reputation in the Townsville area.

Enrolment is open to all families who desire Christian education for their children.
