The school journey for every student should be one that is positive, challenging and inspiring. At Peter Carnley Anglican Community School (PCACS), we pride ourselves in supporting our students' social, emotional, physical and cognitive development.

As a School of The Anglican Schools Commission (Inc.), PCACS is a young and dynamic school, offering excellence in education for students from Pre-Kindergarten to Year 12 across two beautiful campuses.

With a contemporary Early Learning Campus in Calista, and an attractively designed Wellard Campus for students from Years 2-12, the School provides a nurturing and balanced educational experience for all its students. Both campuses enjoy open play spaces where physical exercise and nature play is encouraged.

As educators, our purpose is to take each child on an Educational Journey: to spark students' intellectual curiosity, to grow their creativity and capacity to tackle and solve problems; to value work ethic and persistence; enable opportunities to work with others and to show care and compassion.

We create an environment where our students can discover their strengths and talents, and we encourage a lifelong passion for creativity, innovation and learning. At PCACS we encourage every member of our community to be the best version of themselves. This key philosophy challenges the students to compare themselves to who they were yesterday, not to compare themselves to others today.

Our Principal firmly believes that the positive relationships that exist between students, parents and staff at PCACS define their quality educational experience.

"As a School community, our focus is to empower the students in our care to make good choices and to provide quality education for all who walk through our gates. There is a real sense of community at our school. With an aspirational focus, we aim to lift the eyes of students beyond the immediate horizon so they can dream and act effectively in the broader world around them – engaging with their community, nation and the world. We are committed to challenging and inspiring our students to be the best they can be, both for their journey through school and for life beyond our gates".
