St Andrews Christian College commenced in 1983 at Surrey Hills in response to a growing demand for a distinctive Christian school in the area that reflected and supported Christian family values and provided an education that assisted students in realising their potential in all areas of the curriculum.

After a period of steady growth the College moved to the premises in Burwood in 1998.  In 2000 the College was also able to offer secondary classes.

In 2010, following much hard work, perseverance and prayer the College moved to its present site in Wantirna South.  This enabled the College to continue with fulfilling the vision of establishing a strong Christ-centred Prep to Year 12 College in Melbourne’s outer eastern suburbs.

The College’s mission is:

To educate our students so that they are well skilled, understand life on the basis of biblical truth, and are motivated to walk with God and serve Him in their lives, so that they will be a positive Christian influence in the world.
