Redlands College is a P-12 coeducational college with over 1100 students located in Wellington Point, Brisbane, Australia. The College is operated by an association formed by members of the Churches of Christ.

Redlands College first opened in February 1988 with 91 students in Years 1-8,^[1] housed in demountable buildings. The College commenced its permanent building programme in its first year, with facilities for primary and secondary students and administration.

In 2006 the College was divided into three separate yet integrated schools - the Junior School (Prep to Year 5), The Middle School (Years 6–9) and the Senior School (Years 10–12).

[edit] Facilities

In 2007 the College is housed in thirteen permanent and purpose built buildings which contain a library, computer laboratories, a performing arts centre, an indoor sports centre with an indoor pool, the junior school, a vocational education unit, science laboratories, Japanese and German classrooms and other rooms and classrooms.

Sporting facilities include two ovals inside the College grounds (and access to another council oval), an indoor heated 25 meter swimming pool and several indoor ball courts.

An arts building enables students to participate in curricular and extra-curricular programmes.
