Covenant College, Canberra
Covenant opened in 1991. As of 2023, it had a roll of around 283 students, and a college feeder program with Trinity Christian School for pupils in years 11 and 12. The school aims to provide quality Christ-centered education to students from Protestant denominations.
In 2013 the school entered into a new phase of its development as it opened its doors to non-Christian students as well as Christian students.
From 2014, the school changed its name to Covenant Christian School, which more clearly reflects its role as a provider of Primary and Secondary education.
There are around 8 classrooms, a science lab, a library, preschool, and a COLA (Covered Outdoor Learning Center) as of 2023. A larger music room was added in 2024.
The school had 183 students enrolled in K-10 in 2021. Of whom, 5 were international students. There were also 37 employed staff at CCS during the 2021 academic year of whom 22 were teaching staff and 15 were non-teaching staff.
