Welcome to NCC

Welcome to Nambour Christian College’s Onboarding website. We’ve created this space to inform and support you in your commencement at our College – whether you’re starting in Prep, Junior, Middle or Senior School – everything you need to know is located within these pages.

Nambour Christian College is considered one of the leading Christian co-educational P-12 Schools on the Sunshine Coast. Located at Woombye, our priority is the security, support and success of each and every child.

If you aren’t familiar with the school fully, there are three separate sub-schools – Junior (Years P-6), Middle (Years 7-9) and Senior (Years 10-12). The reason for this is that these stages of student learning and development are different for each cohort. We ensure our approach is appropriate for student needs and ensure that they are prepared for their next stage in their journey.
