Forest Lake College - History

History

St John's Anglican College was established in 1994 as Forest Lake College with 66 students. The College's enrolment has since expanded to 1,000 students.

It was originally a joint initiative of the Anglican Church of Australia and the Uniting Church in Australia and until 2009 was operated by EDUCANG Limited along with Mary McConnel School, The FLC International Centre, The Lakes College and The Springfield College.

In October 2009, sole ownership of Forest Lake College (FLC) and The Springfield College (TSC) was assumed by the Anglican Diocese of Brisbane and a new board was appointed to EDUCANG Limited.

On 4 November 2010, a new entity FSAC Ltd (Forest Lake & Springfield Anglican Colleges) took over the governance of the two colleges and renamed the Colleges - St John's Anglican College and The Springfield Anglican College. "Rebranding" would commence immediately with the names to officially take effect on 1 January 2011.
