Principal’s Message: Growing in Care and Courage
Dear Parents and Caregivers
Welcome to Tyndale Park Christian School! We partner with families to provide a Christ-centred education for students in Years 1-13. As an independent school we are here to assist parents, encourage academic excellence, and Christian service.

How we teach
We partner with parents
Parents are responsible for their children's education and we assist them. Parents are welcome in the classroom to view their children's textbooks and work at any time.
We build foundations first
In primary, teachers teach reading by phonics, then grammar, spelling and arithmetic, directly and in order. Children learn to read independently by the end of Year 1.
We give a traditional education
We keep to pen, paper and proven methods: students work in books, not on personal electronic devices, with a teacher at the front of the room.
We test weekly and report honestly
Weekly tests, a daily record book and a detailed term report show parents what was achieved, so parents never have to guess how their child is doing.
We grow self-motivated students
In secondary, taught classes sit alongside self-paced subjects as we pursue academic excellence and Christian service. Students learn to manage their own work and goals before they leave school.
We teach every subject from a Biblical perspective
Scripture shapes the content of each subject, not only the Bible lesson. We believe all truth is God's truth. "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6)
