Welcome to Staines Memorial College.

At Staines Memorial College, we provide a caring and high-quality Christian education from Kindy to Year 12. As an affordable schooling option for families in Ipswich and Brisbane’s south-western suburbs, we are committed to delivering an education that encourages both faith and learning.

We are a non-denominational Christian College, welcoming students from a variety of Christian backgrounds and traditions. We also embrace families who, while not necessarily Christian themselves, value a school environment shaped by Christian principles and a strong sense of community

Education is a shared responsibility, and we believe in partnering with parents and carers to provide a holistic learning experience. Grounded in a Biblical worldview, we aim to support every student in growing academically, socially, and spiritually so they can reach their full potential for God. Our vision is for every student to develop a deepening relationship with Jesus Christ and a
strong Biblical worldview that helps them understand and navigate the world. We strive for students to achieve at least one year’s academic growth for each year of schooling, while also developing lifelong character traits that reflect the Fruit of the Spirit, as outlined in Galatians 5:22-23. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our College. We warmly invite you to visit us in person, meet our dedicated staff, and experience the welcoming community at Staines Memorial College. If you have any questions, our friendly administration team is always happy to assist.

Yours sincerely,
Nick Makin
