PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to New Madinah College — a vibrant K–10 Islamic learning community nestled in the beautiful town of Young, Australia’s Cherry Capital, in regional New South Wales.
At New Madinah College, we believe that true education nurtures both the mind and the soul. Our vision is to develop young Australian Muslims who are grounded in Islamic values, confident in their identity, and equipped with the knowledge and skills to contribute positively to society.
We take great pride in offering a balanced curriculum that harmonises academic excellence with spiritual growth. Our dedicated teachers deliver high-quality education aligned with NESA standards, while our Quran, Arabic, and Islamic Studies programs ensure students remain connected to their faith and heritage.
Being situated in the tranquil surrounds of Young provides a unique environment for learning — one that fosters a sense of peace, reflection, and appreciation for Allah’s creation. Our students learn not only in classrooms but also through meaningful experiences that build character, resilience, and gratitude.
We are also committed to nurturing the whole child — academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. From our Sunnah Sports Program and outdoor learning experiences to our leadership and service initiatives, every aspect of our school life is designed to help students embody the values of adab (manners), ihsan (excellence), integrity, and compassion.
At New Madinah College, education is a partnership between the school, the home, and the wider community. Together, we work to inspire our students to seek knowledge, act with sincerity, and live as confident ambassadors of Islam in contemporary Australia.
It is an honour to lead this wonderful school and to witness the growth, curiosity, and faith of our students each day. I warmly invite you to explore our website and learn more about what makes New Madinah College such a special place in the heart of Young, NSW.
