Sheldon College

About

Sheldon College was founded in 1997 under the stewardship of Principal and CEO, Dr Lyn Bishop OAM. Guided by a philosophy of Love, Laughter and Learning, Dr Bishop had a vision to open a school which would leave a legacy for children in the Redland Shire. Sheldon College educates children from 15 months of age through to Year 12 and is recognised for outstanding achievements in the academic, sporting and cultural arenas. Nestled in a picturesque, semi-rural setting in Brisbane's Bayside, the College is recognised as one of the most outstanding private schools in the country. Our College campus is located on 56 acres in a semi-rural setting in Taylor Road, Sheldon. The College was established in 1997 and is committed to providing a quality education for all students in a safe, secure learning environment which is characterised by high standards for both staff and students in the areas of dress and appearance, behaviour and individual scholarship and work habits. The mission of Sheldon College is to provide a quality educational experience in an environment which encourages and enables our students to succeed in a constantly changing world. Our Student Exit Outcomes ensure our students leave our College equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to become self directed learners, effective communicators and collaborators, creative thinkers, problem solvers, innovators, information and media literate, skilled in the core literacies, and possessing high self esteem.
