The program is named after Tabitha in Acts 9 of the Bible, who was a disciple recorded as always ‘doing good and helping the poor.’ Tabitha clearly had a heart for service. The Tabitha Diploma is a two-year program for HSC students in Years 11 and 12. In order to achieve their Tabitha Diploma, students complete 6 electives in the key areas of Service, Action and Personal Development.

Students may also work towards a Tabitha Diploma with Honours by completing 20 hours of service in their own time. For example, participating in a service trip, coaching a sporting team or leading youth group.

Tabitha is a varied and thoughtful program that helps to build our students' character and encourages them to serve Christ in their communities now and in the future.
