Why do we choose Christian Education

In a diverse educational landscape, choosing the right school for your children is a crucial decision. To find comfort in your child’s school, knowing that it shares your values and beliefs and partners with you in your child’s education, can simplify the decision-making.

 

The lessons taught through history, maths, design, music and science will be shaped by the big picture, true stories of God, His universe and His interaction with His people… all aspects of the learning process are influenced by the gospel. (Authentic Christian Education, CEN 2019)

 

Reasons to choose Christian Education:

  • A way of living – an emphasis on moral and ethical foundations embedded in our everyday lives.
  • Character Development – Building our children up to be the uniquely created image bearers of God through Christ.
  • Strong Biblical alignment – As culture changes at a rapid pace, we align ourselves with a Biblical worldview that was as relevant 2000 years ago as it is today.
  • Partnership – Working together with your child’s school to address academics, social and emotional needs, which creates a successful learning environment.
  • Rich Learning – Creation is diverse, rich and complex, so we reflect this in our learning with deep, wide and full thinking. (Transformational Education – A Framework for Christian Teaching)

As parents, we are able to give our children the ability to reflect, discern and bring a Biblical critique to the roots and fruits of ideas and issues through their education.

 

‘The commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about then when you sit at home and when you walk along the road…’

Deuteronomy 6:6-7
