In 1991, the Nambucca Valley Christian Community School (NVCCS) introduced the first Christian Community School into the Nambucca Valley.
In 2013, NVCCS introduced the first non Government Christian High School into the Nambucca Valley.
The progress of the school in recent years has been simply amazing and means NVCCS has become the first non Government school in the Nambucca Valley to offer K-12 education on the one campus for the student’s entire life. The first cohort of Year 12 students will complete their HSC at the end of 2018.
In 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 large building projects have been undertaken for extra classrooms and specialist facilities. Planning is also underway for more growth and development.
When we look at all of these wonderful achievements during the past twenty seven years there is much room for celebration. NVCCS has wonderful, highly trained staff and is supported by an army of volunteers. Our Christian focus continues to be strong and remains the foundation for who we are and who we represent. At NVCCS, Jesus Christ is central to the vision of the school and our understanding of Him is embedded in our educational practices at every level.
