Your child has gifts and abilities that need to be recognised and developed. This requires a cooperative effort between children, parents and the school community. It requires a school culture that does not value a limited range of gifts but encourages your child to fully use his or her gifts and abilities - regardless of what they might be.

Your child is precious, made in the image of God, and needs to be raised and taught in a way that prepares for life and leadership in a world that will not always respect their values and beliefs. Contact us to find out how we can cater for your children's educational needs.

Orange Christian School is a parent-owned, non-denominational Christian school established by local parents in 1981. It is a comprehensive Pre- Kindergarten to Year 12 school providing a high quality academic education that promotes spiritual, ethical and relational understanding in children. The central purpose of education in a Christian school is to support the unique development of each child enabling them to meaningfully serve God and support the needs of others.

The Christian philosophy of the school provides the basis for unity and community among the different persons involved within the life of OCS. It promotes acceptance of the differences between individuals and provides them freedom to develop their gifts and talents. It promotes acceptance of a Christian framework within which personal values can develop.

The school seeks to bring all areas of school life into alignment with Biblical principles, including administration, curriculum, governance and welfare. By developing a faithful approach to education, OCS strives to offer excellent opportunities for academic, physical, spiritual, communal and emotional growth for all students.

Since 1981 OCS has seen well over a thousand children grow into young men and women and take their place within the wider community, determined to make a difference wherever life leads them. Parents and staff have nurtured and taught the students under their care, encouraging them to embrace all of life. By caring, showing love and challenging students to become the individuals that God would have them be, parents and staff have demonstrated to students the possibilities that await them beyond the school gate.
