HillSide Christian College

HillSide Christian College was established in 1977 by HillSide Church. From small beginnings, by the early 80’s, the College had grown rapidly to over 150 students and subsequently relocated to the existing site with a view to further expansion. At the heart of the College, are principles of Christian cultural values, belief in the potential of students, excellence in learning experiences, and a forward thinking vision. The College is committed to transformation in Jesus’ name. We outwork this through enabling students to discover Christ, His purpose in their lives and how best they can use their God-given gifts and talents. In doing so, we partner with parents, staff and the community according to the values and beliefs of the Christian faith. We aim to provide a Godly approach to learning and therefore adopts a motto of ‘To Knowledge, add Wisdom’ in reference to this. We aim to provide a Christian environment for each student; to recognise God and from relationship with Him; to develop each young person‘s spiritual, physical; emotional; academic and gifs of service; to complement and reinforce positive and ethical instruction; to encourage respect, self-control and contentment. HillSide is an evangelical Christian College and our beliefs are consistent with a Biblical world view with Jesus Christ as Lord and King. HillSide is a community defined according to its future rather than its past. It is, therefore, a forward-thinking College that has captured the strengths of its past in shaping the culture and ethos for its future.
