Adventist Education

Adventist Education is a vital ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and is committed to sharing God’s life-transforming love. We are part of a thriving, Christ-centred learning community with 48 school campuses and 13 early learning services across Australia committed to providing excellence in Christian education.

Adventist Education has been an integral part of the ministry of the worldwide Seventh-day Adventist Church since the early 1870s, and is part of the largest protestant schooling system in the world with 9,489 schools, colleges and universities in over 100 countries.

The Seventh-day Adventist philosophy of education is Christ-centred. We believe that Jesus is the ultimate example of ‘love in action’ and He wants us to do likewise. As such, Adventist Education is a vital ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and is committed to sharing God’s life-transforming love. Adventist Education strives to be transformative. It seeks to impart more than academic knowledge through the balanced development of the whole person: spiritually, mentally, socially, and physically. It seeks to develop a life of faith in God and respect for the dignity of all people. It seeks to guide students “to be thinkers, and not mere reflectors of other people’s thoughts” (White, E. Education, 1903). It promotes loving service rather than selfish ambition, and it embraces all that is true and good. Our schools and early learning services seek to be thriving, nurturing, learning communities where Jesus is central, and where our students and young children may become all that God intends them to be.
