Northern Beaches Christian School is an independent, co-educational, non-denominational Christian, day school located in Terrey Hills, a suburb of the Northern Beaches of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Established in 1981, it is a partner school of Macquarie University.
The School caters for students from Kindergarten to Year 12, and is divided into Primary and Secondary sections. The school completed its multi-purpose hall named after Australian actress Marina Prior and a shared learning space called 'SCIL' named after the school's educational enrichment project of the same name in 2009. The two buildings were officially opened by the school's Board of Directors and local MP Bronwyn Bishop.
The school is known for its inclusive nature, catering for a diversity of students. The school also has a strong policy against harassment, with a number of students suspended each year due to harassment complaints.
The school has a Global Opportunities Program which aims to build global bridges through community partnership, cultural understanding and shared learning. GO projects have involved sending teams of staff and students to Cambodia, Rwanda, Uganda and Moree. GO teams work in a range of contexts, including running children's programs, English literacy development, and professional development for local teachers.
