Governance & Leadership

Jeff Allen

Principal

In 2013, Jeff Allen became Principal at NVCCS. Until then it had been a K-6 primary school, but the vision of the Board and school community saw it progress to a high school, under Jeff’s leadership. Jesus Christ is at the centre of his approach to education. 


In this context, Jeff is committed to a school for all people from all walks of life. He sees the need for teachers to provide an education which is academically challenging, and the value of serving students by encouraging them to use their minds to think critically, and discover truth, goodness and beauty.


In 2020, Jeff became a Vice Chancellor's Scholar for the University of New England after completing a Masters of Applied Leadership in Positive Education.

 THE SCHOOL BOARD

Nambucca Valley Christian Community School, located on the Mid-North Coast of NSW is governed by a Christian Schools Board appointed by the Presbyterian Church of Australia (NSW). 

The school embraces families representing the breadth of Christian churches and cultures within the valley.  All staff are devoted, qualified and committed Christians. Our school strives for excellence and wholeness in every aspect of life and learning. Parents, teachers and churches work together in community to support and encourage children to grow in their potential for God. Community involvement is high on our agenda and opportunities are provided for active participation and service, outside of the school. We are excited about our school and the impact that we are seeing in our children and in the wider community.
