The Saint Stephen's College Experience
Welcome to Saint Stephen’s College, located on the Queensland’s beautiful Gold Coast, spanning across approximately 25 acres with a small water causeway. We are a co-educational, multi-denominational school with approximately 1400 students from Kindergarten to Year 12.
From our humble beginnings in 1996, Saint Stephen’s College is highly regarded for nurturing and supporting teacher excellence, powered with the vision to drive education forward; so, every student is challenged and inspired to create and preserve their own future. We exist to develop within students the drive to lead the next generation, and the integrity to do what is right.
The vision for Saint Stephen’s College is to be a learning community centred on Christian principales where we strive to develop self-directed, determined, courageous and skillful young people who make a positive difference to their communities now and in the future.
We are grounded in Christian values and inclusive to all, ensuring every student is respected, heard, and develops the integrity and responsibility to serve others. We call it a ‘sense of pride’ our College Core Values (Perseverance, Integrity, Diversity and Empathy).
As a community we aim to help identify and celebrate students own special gifts and talents, immerse them in their learning and create self-directed students. Our innovative approach to learning that blends technology and ‘traditional’ approaches has been acknowledged globally.
