Palmerston Christian School

Our Schools > NT > Palmerston Christian School

Palmerston Christian School (PCS) began in 1988 with a vision to offer exceptional education from a Christian perspective to the fast developing Palmerston area.  The school is situated on three hectares of both natural and landscaped gardens in the suburb of Marlow Lagoon.  A rural setting only five minutes drive from the heart of Palmerston.

PCS offers a total of 275 positions for students from Transition through to Year 9:

  • Primary school (T-6) – 175 positions
  • Middle school (7-9) - 100 positions

PCS strives to:

  • Provide strong Christian foundations and values
  • Promote a caring family atmosphere
  • Encourage continued parent involvement
  • Support a creative and challenging learning environment
  • Achieve high academic and personal standards
  • Foster community involvement

Primary School
The school supports the belief that the foundations laid in the early childhood section are critical to the success of all future learning. 

The Transition class receives only one intake each year for children who are five or turning five during semester 1.  This allows for a structured and sequential approach to early literacy and numeracy at this crucial stage in a child’s development.

In building upon these foundations the school is able to demonstrate a commitment to high academic standards.

Middle School
To cater to the needs of young adolescents, Palmerston Christian School offers middle schooling from Years 7 to 9.  These particular years are critical for an adolescent where decisive patterns that are vital in study habits and social skills are often established. 

Through the careful selection of staff, PCS aims to address this critical stage of the student’s development and offer appropriate teaching and care.

Apart from ensuring a stronger connection and caring relationship between student and teacher, there is also a commitment to upholding and pursuing high academic standards.

Mission Statement
To serve parents and students through the process of nurturing and educating children in an environment where Christ is central, thereby enabling them to be the people that God has called them to be.
