Australian Christian College is a co-educational school, located in Marsden Park, Northwest Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The School has grades ranging from Kindergarten to Year 12. Year 12 students are able to complete their Higher School Certificate at the school.

The vision of the School is to develop students who are equipped spiritually, academically, socially and physically to be a positive influence on the world in which they live.

The School is owned and operated by Christian Education Ministries Ltd[1] and is a member of Christian Schools Australia and the Association of Independent Schools of NSW.

Principal Mrs Paulle Kwok assisted in establishing the school in 2007. It has grown to approximately 530 students. In 2011, the school celebrated its first graduation of a Year 12 HSC class.[2]

In addition, the school offers distance education to students who reside across New South Wales.

Enrolment is open to Christian students of all denominations as well as non-Christian students. Non-Christian students wishing to enrol must accept their Christian teaching and ethos.

During the 2011 year, the School opened a new A$3,000,000 multi-purpose centre (MPC) funded by the Australian Government's Building the Education Revolution (BER) Scheme. The MPC includes an indoor sports arena, canteen and classrooms.
