Principal’s Welcome

We stand beside.

Principal, Rev Chris Ivey

Hi, I'm Chris Ivey

As Principal, I welcome you to St Andrew's Anglican College, an award-winning Independent private school achieving excellence on the Sunshine Coast.

Our College caters for students from Prep to Year 12 and our Early Learning Centre and day care service, Little Saints, provides care for children from six-weeks through to school age.

Being the Principal of St Andrew’s Anglican College is an exciting and rewarding job, because of our College community. It's a delight for me to welcome our students each morning, to interact with staff as we share ideas about the future of our College and collaborate with parents to ensure a consistent approach to all that we undertake.

The St Andrew's Way

Our approach to education is based on high expectations of our staff and students, balanced with a firm commitment to the importance of the respectful relationships that exist between staff, students and parents.

This ensures our commitment to encourage each student to develop a love for learning and to challenge themselves to reach their personal best is not something that we simply write about. Our committed staff engender not just a love for learning but a love for belonging, of being part of a community. The flow-on effect is a student body that openly emanates a willingness to engage in a wide range of opportunities.

Our wish for our departing Collegians is that they will have a passion for learning and will be individuals who endeavour to positively transform the communities in which they live and work. In the great and the small things they do, they will enliven and enrich our world. Our commitment to encourage each student to develop a love for learning and to challenge themselves to reach their personal best is not something we simply write about, a quick walk around campus will demonstrate that we strive to turn the rhetoric into reality.

I encourage all families interested in applying to our school to contact the College to arrange a time to meet us and have a tour of one of Queensland’s great schools.
