MESSAGE FROM THE PRIMATE
Archbishop of Adelaide and Primate of the Anglican Church of Australia
Anglican schools are a vibrant part of the Australian education landscape and make a very positive contribution to the lives of students, their families and our wider community. As someone who has enjoyed significant engagement with Anglican schools over the years I am very supportive of their work and their important place in the life and mission of our church.
It is my hope that Anglican Schools Australia can continue to encourage, connect and represent our schools so it is my pleasure to welcome you to the website and to the work of ASA.
Grace and peace in Christ Jesus
