CENTRAL COAST ADVENTIST SCHOOL (CCAS)

CCAS is a school with a clear, Christ-centred mission.
Established in 1969, the school takes enrolments from Pre-kindergarten to Year
12 with a full HSC program in place. It is school policy to limit school size
in order to maximise the positives of the small-school environment, whilst
allowing for numerous elective paths. The school is renowned for its caring
attitude and acknowledgment of each individual student. “Caring for their
Tomorrow… Today.”

Facilities: The campus sits on 4.7 hectares of prime real
estate in the Erina CBD. The school has a large multi-purpose sports field,
several sun-shaded play areas for primary students and a building layout that
allows for the maximum use of open free-play areas for both primary and
secondary campuses. The large 500-seat auditorium also serves as an indoor
basketball/sports stadium. The first stage of the Sport Centre is complete and
provides two fully equipped indoor basketball courts. The centre is also used
for a range of other indoor sports. There is also a 500-seat hall that is being
refurbished into a permanent chapel venue.

and Australian representation for students.

in either camps or excursions. Students have the opportunity to participate in
various choirs and vocal ensembles. The school also has a stage band. Special
