History
Following the success of Trinity Lutheran College at Ashmore, Queensland, the Lutheran Church of Australia started to plan the establishment of a Lutheran school to service the southern end of the Gold Coast, Australia in 198x.
The school is located in Tallebudgera, Queensland and currently has over 1000 students.
The school opened for teaching in February, 1993.
Since Opening, the school has expanded from one set of demountable classrooms, to ten extensive learning blocks. It facilitates three sporting ovals (as well as an indoor multi-purpose centre) and a basketball court. It has a theatre to support the performing arts and in May 2012 the Covered Outdoor Learning Area (COLA) was opened.
In May 2012 the school released a Social Media Policy which extends to staff, students and parents of students. This policy is based on a similar policy in place at Melbourne Girls Grammar School

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“There is a history in all men’s lives,
Figuring the natures of the times deceased,
The which observed, a man may prophesy,
With a near aim, of the main chance of things
As yet not come to life.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“[Men say:] “Don’t you know that we are your natural protectors?” But what is a woman afraid of on a lonely road after dark? The bears and wolves are all gone; there is nothing to be afraid of now but our natural protectors.”
—Frances A. Griffin, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 19, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
“No one is ahead of his time, it is only that the particular variety of creating his time is the one that his contemporaries who are also creating their own time refuse to accept.... For a very long time everybody refuses and then almost without a pause almost everybody accepts. In the history of the refused in the arts and literature the rapidity of the change is always startling.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
