Forming a holistic partnership

WITH students spending most of their week at school, it is important to ensure they have the right team around them as well as up-to-date facilities to provide the best experience possible.

In Psalm 127:3, it says, “Children are a gift from the Lord” and it is this mindset that the staff of Kerang Christian College have regarding each one of our students.

The staff at the college see their role as forming a partnership with the parents and guardians to educate their children.

The teachers aim to nurture the individual talents of each student so that they can develop into well balanced adults ready to take on the next adventure God has planned for them.

The college’s dedicated and enthusiastic team of staff are then supported by up-to-date facilities.

These include a newly-built wing that provides a completely fitted-out woodworking space as well as a customised science space, allowing the students to test their skills and try out new experiences.

Facilities also include a fully equipped kitchen classroom with 10 individual working spaces that include ovens, microwaves, sinks and necessary equipment.

While students can bring their own devices in secondary school, the college also has several laptop carts that teachers can bring into any class as needed. There is also a computer lab for focused ICT classes.

Of course, a child’s physical health is also important and all year levels are offered the opportunity to participate in physical education classes. The modern canteen is also focused on serving children a variety of healthy options, as well as a few “sometimes” treats.

As a Christian school, it weaves Bible teachings throughout the Australian curriculum so that students not only learn English, mathematics, science, humanities and numerous electives, but they also discover a greater understanding of the Christian faith and character.

With this approach, student have a holistic education that caters for their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs.
