The Seventh-day Adventist Schools (North New South Wales) Limited Needs-Based Funding (NBF) Arrangement is a major cornerstone in the delivery of the mission of Adventist education in Northern New South Wales (NNSW). Adventist schools in NNSW seek to be ‘a bridge’ in their communities: developing minds and connecting hearts. The NBF Arrangement helps ‘bridge’ the physical distance between sister schools through alignment and common purpose; and underwrites an organisational structure built upon unity, collegiality and good governance.

At the centre of the NBF Arrangement are the students themselves, the reason our schools exist, their learning journey, their pursuit of purpose and their opportunity to be of service to their community. Adventist schools seek to value add to community: one graduate at a time.
