Vision, Mission and Values

Our Vision

We are a multi-denominational Christian school offering a broad, seamless Christian education from Years 1-13. The focus on Christian discipleship is the key point of difference between Cornerstone Christian School and state schools. 

We prioritise Christian discipleship within every aspect of daily school life, giving students every opportunity to embrace Christian faith as the Cornerstone of their life and empowering them.

"To become confident followers of Jesus Christ, equipped and inspired to creatively impact our world"

School Motto

“Learn, Serve and Grow in God”

“That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields fruit in season and whole leaf does not wither – whatever they do prospers”
Psalm 1: 3
“To provide, with parents, a balanced Christian education to help children develop to their full potential in God”
CCS mission statement

Our Mission

We provide a family-based approach to learning, recognising and upholding the importance of the role of the family, and strongly encourage parental involvement. 

We expect that parents will support their children and be willing to help whenever possible with matters related to their education, such as attending school meetings and functions, assisting in the classroom, providing transport, assisting at sporting events and participating in fundraising activities.

Our School Values

Our core values are Respect, Diligence, Integrity, Kindness, and an underpinning value of Humility before God. These values encapsulate the beating heart of what we’re about as a school. They form a large portion of our thinking and teaching and our teachers proactively teach and encourage our students to think about how they can develop these values in all of life.

The ‘Oak Tree’ symbol connects back to two of our foundation school scriptures, Isaiah 61:3 and Psalm 1:3 where God’s people are respectively described as great trees that are ‘planted for His glory’ and that ‘bear fruit in season’. Beneath the Oak tree is the rich soil of our Godly heritage built on our school vision and our school values.”
