Cannons Creek Independent School is a safe, community school with a Christian ethos, staffed by passionate professionals who endeavour to produce confident, trustworthy young people. In 1997, a group of like-minded individuals got together with one common goal, to establish a school with small classes and to achieve the highest scholastic standards. Teachers were appointed who would rival their peers in the dynamic field of education. Through the staff’s determination and hard work, supported by the parents and School trustees, the School has provided a platform for learners to be prepared for a combination of an excellent all-round education and life skills. Having recently celebrated Cannons Creek’s 15th Anniversary, the School is proud to have achieved these goals.

The success of Cannons Creek is due to a healthy combination of Christian-based values, our co-educational approach, excellent teaching and a family-like spirit. Pupils look forward to coming to school in the mornings because Cannons Creek is a place of belonging, of security, of happiness – and a place where young people are challenged to attain their full potential. At Cannons Creek we believe that every pupil is an individual with special talents that need to be discovered, explored and developed. We achieve this via a number of approaches. Firstly, we offer a wide range of subjects, taught by experienced teachers in small class groups. Secondly, pupils are encouraged to participate and compete in a diverse selection of sport played at a competitive level. Thirdly we offer a broad mix of cultural and service activities that should cater for the tastes of all. Numerous opportunities exist for pupils to excel in all areas. That is the essence of Cannons Creek - opportunities to excel - opportunities that would possibly not present themselves as readily in a large school. At Cannons Creek no one goes unnoticed.
