Principal's Welcome

Ipswich Adventist School is a Christian primary school that specialises in providing quality education in a warm, welcoming environment. We know every single student by name and support each one as they develop towards their full potential. 

Our special character, embodied in ‘The Spirit of IAS', includes relationships, integrity, respect, attitude and responsibility. These principles form the basis of our behaviour and are integral to our thriving Christ-centred learning community.

We cultivate a depth of learning, social interaction and level of participation that is not always possible in larger schools. Our classrooms are learner-centred, with a strong emphasis on individualised planning, small group instruction and opportunities for peer collaboration. 

Our students also take part in frequent service activities in the school and community. This builds personal confidence and cooperation, and provides opportunities to discover new forms of self-expression. With the strong sense of belonging and identity that comes from their primary years at IAS, our students commonly maintain high levels of community involvement and leadership in their secondary years. 

Ipswich Adventist School welcomes people of all faiths who value our Christian ethos. Are you thinking about becoming part of our vibrant IAS community? I hope we can talk soon.
