History

Belgrave Heights Christian School was founded in 1983 as a result of the hard work of Lynette Thompson, Jenny McCallam and Isabel Bell. The school was established at the Belgrave Heights Presbyterian Campsite, and officially began as a Primary School.

In the early 90's, the school's enrolments declined from approximately 45, to a total of four students. This led to a temporary arrangement with Hillcrest Christian College, which allowed the school's numbers to increase again.

In 2002, the school began its journey of transitioning into both a Primary and Secondary School progressively adding secondary year levels over time.

In 2004, Andy Callow was appointed to the position of school principal. He led the school though a period of rapid growth At the start of 2023, Andy Callow was replaced as principal by Peter Cliffe.

In 2013, the Kindergarten was opened providing a purpose-built facility for early years education.
