In 2026, Shellharbour Anglican College celebrates 22 years of delivering affordable, Christian education to the Illawarra region. The Strategic Plan 2026–2028 guides the College as we continue to Pursue Tomorrow, together.
Our families can be assured that they have a partner who seeks to understand them and hear their hopes and dreams for their children.
Our Strategic Plan guides our work as a community of purpose and is underpinned by our school values: faith, wisdom, compassion and respect. Our vision for the future seeks to provide an exciting learning environment where students can develop the courage to explore opportunity, celebrate success and embrace life’s challenges.
Our students are not ordinary. They are resilient, relish challenge and can face obstacles with humility and integrity. We accomplish this by developing dynamic learning environments, delivered by passionate and adaptable staff. Our plan hinges on continuing a strong sense of community that values both collaboration and agency.
