Heathdale Christian College is a thriving learning community that strives to enable staff and students to fulfil their unique God-given potential. We seek to grow each student's love for learning over their journey with us, nurturing their sense of awe and wonder as they grow academically, personally, spiritually, and through their co-curricular endeavours.
Our staff work together to create an environment geared for learning that impacts the lives of each student. This culture of excellence is built through a deep desire to show initiative, to build capacity, to learn and grow so we make things better. Ultimately fulfilling God's call for our careers. This mindset is not self-serving; it arises from the knowledge that each member of staff serves a higher calling on their lives. 'To God be the glory' is not a throwaway statement for us, but rather evidence of a heart that serves God through daily work.
