Learning for Life

Located in Southern River, Providence Christian College is a caring co-educational college where children from Kindergarten to Year 12 grow to live a life of purpose and influence. Students embark on an engaging education and faith journey that encourages them to embrace a Christian worldview.

About Us

Formerly Thornlie Christian College, the College became known as Providence Christian College in 2020. The word Providence means “God’s provision and guidance.” The name perfectly complements the College’s purpose to provide education under the Lordship of Christ and therefore, more accurately defines who we are and what we stand for.

Learning at Providence

We believe that learning in the context of an authentic Christian worldview brings a sense of wonder, engagement and purpose to the learning experience. It is the function of Christian education to encourage the search for truth in the context of God’s sovereignty and His created universe.

The Providence Way

Providence Christian College seeks to develop people of influence who engage life from a Christian worldview, providing them with the skills to succeed in their life and calling. Our goal is to offer a quality education where students learn the importance of academics, a balanced spiritual life, and self-discipline.

Testimonials

A Place Where God’s Presence Is Evident

From the moment we visited Providence, we sensed something different — grounded, peaceful, and Christ-centred. It wasn’t just the academics or facilities, but the way the school nurtures the whole child, mind, heart, and soul. We wanted our children in a place where biblical truth is the foundation and teachers are spiritual mentors.

Providence is a place where God’s presence is evident and where our children grow in wisdom and faith. For any family seeking more than just a good education, I wholeheartedly recommend Providence — where faith and learning thrive together, and where your children will be known, loved, and equipped for all God has called them to be.

The Best Decision You Will Ever Make

I have encouraged several families to attend Providence. I always tell people that Providence centres God in everything they do. That had a profound impact on us making our decision, as our lives need to centre around God. To be at a school that has changed our family, grown my girls in their walk with God and in their knowledge of the Bible — it’s the best decision you will ever make! I can’t thank God enough for directing us to this path. The staff at Providence have supported us through this journey, and the friendships my girls have made have been beautiful to see flourishing.
