Central Coast Adventist School is an independent Seventh-day Adventist co-educational early learning, primary and secondary day school, located in Erina, on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia.
Founded in 1969, the school is a part of the Seventh-day Adventist education system, the world's second largest Christian school system.[1][2][3][4] John Hammond was the first principal with 18 students. The school has grown to over 900 students today.[5]
History
The school was established on former farm land which was donated to the local church for the establishment of the school. Local church member, Kevin Chugg, built two classrooms at a total cost of $16,000.[6]
