Timaru Christian School is a Year 1-10 state-integrated non-denominational Christian School. That means we learn everything you would expect us to learn about but we get to talk about God too! We learn to see and understand that God is an important part of everything we learn about, everything we do, and every moment in our day.

With about 130 students we have a wonderful community where we know and care for one another.
If you would like to get to know more about us, please feel free to contact Bethany Rentoul (Principal) and she would love to share more about who we are. Check us out on Facebook too!
