History

Emmanuel Anglican College was created as an Anglican College within the Anglican Diocese of Grafton. It has a strong Christian intent within the Anglican tradition. It is part of the network of Anglican Colleges within the Diocese - Lindisfarne in the Tweed, The Cathedral School at Grafton, Bishop Druitt College in Coffs Harbour and St Columba Anglican School at Port Macquarie. The College was established with 16 students in 1998, and since that time it has grown rapidly, with enrolments reaching 420 in 2007.

College Campus

Emmanuel Anglican College is situated on approximately 6 hectares in West Ballina with 3 hectares of new playing fields.

Building commenced on the site in 1999. In 2002, the College opened a new 'state-of-the-art' building with 4 classrooms and retracting walls, providing accommodation for a 350 student assembly. In 2004, a large 2-storey Science and Technology Centre was constructed.

Current specialist facilities include Science, Food Technology, Art and Wood Technics, Drama and a Music Room. The Music Room opens out onto a purpose built staging area. An all-purpose court has been constructed that accommodates five sports, and a hockey field area forms part of the grounds.

St Mary's Anglican Parish in Ballina provides the church for use on formal chapel occasions.
