Welcome to Calvary Christian College, a co-educational, independent, Christian College catering for children from the age of two years through to Year 12.
About Us
Calvary Christian College exists to graduate young people of integrity, compassion, confidence, and Christian Character.
Founded in 1978 with just three teachers and 52 students, Calvary Christian College is the product of a vision to see quality education accessible to the Townsville region.
The last four decades has seen the College grow from strength to strength. Now situated on a spacious 60-acre site along Bayswater Road, Calvary Christian College is home to over 900 students from the Early Learning Centre through to Year 12.
Here at Calvary we pride ourselves in providing the highest quality onsite facilities to excel our students’ learning experiences. These facilities include a multimillion dollar Sports Centre, Library incorporating a 150 seat lecture theatre, Industrial Technology Centre, 10-acre Agricultural Centre, Performing and Creative Arts Centre and multiple ovals.
The growth of the College continues on today with plans for the expansion and development of a number of new facilities just around the corner.

Our College delivers a culture of support and connection. Every Calvary team member is part of our Pastoral Care network.
We have a dedicated Pastoral Care team made up of Chaplains and a Student Welfare Officer. The team oversees the range of support programs offered to students and works closely with the Principal and teaching staff to develop and maintain a positive and encouraging College environment.
The five key values come from Jesus’ commendation to the wise stewards in Matthew 25:21 – “Well Done Good Faithful Servant”
1. WE VALUE EXCELLENCE (“Well”)
We encourage students to achieve higher levels by continually doing the very best they can with God’s help.
They said of Jesus: “He does all things well” (Mark 7:37)
2. WE VALUE PERSISTENCE (“Done”)
We encourage students to develop the resilience and confidence to overcome challenges.
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)
3. WE VALUE HUMILITY (“Good”)
We encourage students to respect and value others.
“Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.” (1 Peter 5:6)
4. WE VALUE FAITH (“Faithful”)
We encourage students to develop obedience to God’s Word and trust in His faithfulness.
“The just shall live by faith” (Romans 1:17)
5. WE VALUE GENEROSITY (“Servant”)
We encourage students to see their gifts and talents as opportunities to glorify God as they serve others.
“A generous man devises generous things and by generosity he shall stand.” (Isaiah 32:8)
Calvary Christian College is known for the high calibre of its graduates. It is our goal to equip and empower young people through faith in Christ to go on to make a positive contribution to the world in which they live.
Luke 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.
Calvary Christian College is continually expanding and launching new initiatives that provide an excellent environment in which young people can succeed by finding and pursuing God’s unique purpose for their life.

Principal's Message
Welcome to Calvary Christian College.
Our goal is the same as yours - to see your child become all they can be.
There are few endeavours more important to your child’s development and success than their education. It plays a significant role in shaping the person your child becomes, the character they carry, the success they see and the integrity they walk in.
Every school is about education, but parents who entrust their children to Calvary Christian College do so because they understand an educational system isn’t worth a great deal if it teaches young people how to make a living but doesn’t teach them how to make a life.
We want you to discover all that Calvary Christian College offers, so that you can make a well informed decision regarding the investment into your child’s future.
I look forward to welcoming you to Calvary Christian College.
