- Our Origins
A legacy of excellence since 1979.
Since its inception, Oxley has strived for top academic standards in a Christian setting. Oxley offers excellent teaching, leading to outstanding results from our Year 12 students. Pastor H.K. Oxley, OBE, founder of Life Ministry Centre (LMC,) defined the Academy's purpose in 1983. His vision laid the groundwork for the institution's enduring mission and values.
“Our aim is to produce a sound, academically trained person with a Christian foundation specifically in regard to standards, behaviour and absolutes; in short, a balanced, stable, mature and useful citizen of our community.”
His vision remains at the core of Oxley Christian College’s ethos in the form of our mission. The College changed its name to Oxley College in 1986, and later, Oxley Christian College. Today, our campus has grown to accommodate around 1,000 K-12 students. This includes our international students, who have enriched our community since 1986.
Over the years, we have made many changes. From just a few portable buildings, we have progressed to modern, innovative learning spaces. Our state-of-the-art Broadley Performing Arts Centre opened in 2011. We completed our latest project, the tailor-designed Junior School and Middle School buildings, in 2022.
Since Oxley Christian College's induction LMC has continued to be committed to its founding objectives for the College. For more information about LMC, visit www.lmc.org.au
