Parkes Christian School has opened enrolments for the 2026 and 2027 school years.
With a reputation for academic excellence, strong community values, and a personalised approach to education, the school has seen unprecedented growth in recent years.
Record enrolments have led to the expansion of facilities and the introduction of double-streamed classes, a move that ensures small class sizes and individualised support for each student.
“Our primary school is undergoing a planned transition to double streaming, which has already occurred in Kindergarten and Year 1, with Year 2 double streaming in 2026," said school principal Mr Glen Westcott.
"We’ll continue this model each year until all of primary is double streamed.
“High school is already double streamed, and with our new facilities this means we can continue offering excellent learning opportunities in a space designed for modern education.”
Mr Westcott emphasised that while growth is exciting, the heart of PCS still remains with its close-knit community.
“It’s incredibly important to us that we remain a school where students are known, supported and valued for who they are," he said.
The school has also just completed a major phase of its long-term masterplan, with the opening of a brand new high school building and car park.
This milestone marks years of careful planning and investment, resulting in modern, light-filled learning spaces, a central courtyard, and dedicated areas for senior students which were all delivered on time, on budget, and without any debt.
“This project has been many years in the making when we started planning the new high school building and car park back in 2018,” Mr Westcott said.
“It’s been incredible to watch the vision come to life.
"The design has surpassed our expectations, from the high ceilings and beautiful natural light to the thoughtful layout that really enhances learning and connection.”
The new car park has also been a welcome addition for the school community, featuring a separate drop-off zone, large undercover walkway, and streamlined traffic flow.
PCS invites families considering enrolment in Kindergarten, Year 7, or any other year group for 2026 or 2027 to apply now.
“Our school continues to grow, but we’re committed to growing the right way, maintaining that community-feel, staying focused on student wellbeing, and providing an outstanding education in every sense,” Mr Westcott added.
