Overview
On behalf of Lutheran Education Australia, I invite you to participate with around 1000 Lutheran leaders, educators and support staff in the seventh Australian Conference on Lutheran Education (ACLE7).
ACLE is usually held every four years to celebrate, learn and grow together our sector of early childhood services and schools which have served the Australian community since 1839. Lutheran Education Australia comprises 78 schools and over 60 early childhood services located in all states and territories (except ACT). Over 55,000 children and students attend Lutheran schools and early childhood services with over 6,000 staff.
ACLE7 will be held in the Brisbane Convention Centre from 1 – 3 October 2025 and will not only bring together the largest gathering of Australian Lutheran educators but will also connect with the global Lutheran education community.
The ACLE7 planning committee is pleased to offer you the opportunity to market your business Australia wide to our conference delegates. Lutheran Colleges, Schools and EarlyChildhood Services throughout Australia will be represented by the ‘decision makers’, specifically:
- Principals
- Directors of Early Childhood Services (ECSs)
- Business Managers
- Governing Body Members of colleges, schools and ECSs
- System authority secretariats (Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide)
- Teachers and Learning Coordinators
- Administrative Support Staff
- Leaders of the Lutheran Church of Australia and New Zealand
- Leaders of Australian Lutheran College
For those businesses who have participated in our previous conferences, we sincerely appreciate your support and welcome you to join with us again. Additionally, for new businesses seeking participation for the first time, we look forward to you taking up this opportunity and promoting your business amongst our Lutheran education community.
