Our Mission is to assist students in becoming valued and contributing members of society by empowering them to reach their full potential in the areas of moral development, Krishna Consciousness, academic learning, creative and independent thinking and personal and emotional growth. The school endeavours to provide a supportive environment where children's innate devotional qualities can emerge. These devotional qualities will be shown through the students cooperative and enthusiastic involvement in all learning experiences. Established and registered in 1980, the Bhaktivedanta Swami Gurukula School is situated in the Hare Krishna rural community of New Govardhana. It is located in the picturesque Tweed Valley near Murwillumbah, northern New South Wales. Nestled atop a ridge, and with magnificent views of the valley, the school provides a natural and peaceful learning atmosphere, conducive to the healthy development and spiritual upliftment.
