St Andrews Lutheran College - History

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
