Principal's Welcome

Hello and welcome to Mountains Christian College.

Our College is an affordable, co-educational Kindergarten to Year 12 school, nestled in the heart of the breathtaking Blue Mountains in Blackheath.

We believe that each child is individually, uniquely and lovingly created by God for a special purpose. Our goal is to nurture our students in an environment where faith, academic excellence, and Christian values are interwoven. We don’t just aim for academic success, but we strive for our students to live out the College’s vision to ‘develop character, compassion, purpose and learning through Christ’, so that each child will grow to become valuable members of society.

At Mountains Christian College we strive to be a place where young minds are inspired and empowered to reach their full potential. Our students are able to engage in a wide array of activities that present both personal and academic challenges. In this way our students discover how to be their best, and to graduate with a confident attitude, a generous spirit, and a discerning mind.

Our site sits on 40 acres of natural bushland and is surrounded by the lush valleys and majestic peaks that overlook the Kanimbla Valley. Our facilities provide an outstanding opportunity for students to enjoy a wide range of extra-curricular activities that include bush walks, annual camps, mountain biking, science expeditions, art, sport, and outdoor education experiences.

I invite you to come for a school visit and see firsthand how our College community could help shape your child’s future.
