Why Hills?
We are purposefully Christian, upholding the faith, values and lifestyle of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
Being a Seventh-day Adventist School, with our values of Compassion, Hope, Excellence, Respect and Integrity, we aim to reflect who we are and what we stand for.
These Christian values permeate our curriculum, influence our policies and procedures and can be seen in the everyday interactions between our staff and our students. Our dedicated team strive for excellence to develop the whole child: academically, spiritually and socially. Sharing our biblical beliefs with students and families through worships, chaplaincy support and our Bible curriculum, are also some of the ways we live our Christian faith at Hills Adventist College at both our Castle Hill and Kellyville campuses.
We welcome all faith traditions into our community, however do ask that all families show respect for and embrace our College values and Christian approach. We encourage you to learn more about the Seventh-day Adventist Church and what we believe. See below for further information ("Who Are Adventists"), check out adventist.org.au online, or feel free to speak to our staff during a Campus Tour or Principal's Interview.
Saturday, the Seventh-day Sabbath is observed from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday, and no extra-curricular activities are held on this day. We do have churches on both our Castle Hill and Kellyville campuses that run Sabbath (Saturday) services, including programs for children, and all are welcome to attend. Please contact the College for more information.
