diversity

Educational community

We are a community of students, teachers, parents, and supporters whose task is education.

Recognizes its roots

We acknowledge that we are building on the vision established by our founding parents.

Celebrates its diversity

We are enriched by our cultural and denominational diversity.

Christ‑centred learning

Every subject is taught from this perspective:
Our world belongs to God. It has fallen into sin, and is being renewed and restored through Christ.

Teach discernment

Our aim is to engage culture - not flee from it - in the confidence that God is in control.

Nurture and equip students

We teach a wide range of content, develop a variety of skills, and celebrate God‑given gifts.

A life of responsive discipleship

We encourage students to understand God’s truth with their minds,
believe God’s truth with their hearts, and do God’s truth with their total beings.

Our Vision Statement:


"At John Knox Christian School,  progressive, caring staff, exceptional
 programs and facilities, and a vibrant supporting community inspire
students to learn, grow and live in the Light of Christ."
