Meet the Principal

Welcome to our College.

"We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." 

- Romans 8:28

At Southern Hills Christian College, we count it a real joy to see our students grow from curious learners into confident, thoughtful young people who are well prepared for the next stage of their journey. Put simply, our mission is to see them flourish. As Jesus said in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” That’s the heart behind everything we do.

We believe our role is to give every effort, every day, to help each child reach their God-given potential. A big part of this is caring for their wellbeing, which is why we place such importance on supporting the whole student — spiritually, emotionally, socially, and academically.

Our chaplain walks closely with students, sharing God’s Word, listening with understanding, and offering support or referrals when needed. Alongside this, our passionate teachers bring both expertise and care, shaping a curriculum that is diverse, rigorous, and engaging.

Students here are blessed with outstanding opportunities — whether it’s being stretched by our excellent teaching staff, developing resilience and teamwork through outdoor education with state-of-the-art resources, or being encouraged daily by their Year Coordinators to understand empathy for others and joyful rigour.

Our College thrives because of the strong partnership we have with families, carers, parents, and grandparents. We are so thankful for the unwavering support of our community, and it is our heart to serve you in all we do — to be a light of hope for every family connected with Southern Hills.

Above all, we acknowledge that everything we do is by God’s strength and for His glory. We trust Him with the fruit of our labour and commit our College into His hands.

We warmly invite you to visit our beautiful College, set in the heart of Bungendore Regional Park, just off Albany Highway. We would love to meet you and welcome you into the Southern Hills community.
