Christian College Geelong

Christian College Geelong aims to grow vibrant, confident students who strive for the highest academic standards - while also accepting the responsibility of helping others in the local and global community. For 40+ years, Christian College has developed this proud tradition, prioritising high-quality independent schooling at a reasonable cost. Families throughout the Geelong region have recognised the advantages of choosing a school where academic excellence is balanced with Christian character development, with the College’s five core values – faith, grace, hope, love and truth – guiding students on their journey. The College currently operates across five campuses in Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast From Kindergarten to Year 4, the Junior School atmosphere is one of warmth, care and understanding. Happy students gain confidence as they master the vital foundations of literacy and numeracy, while innovative specialist programs like art, music, sport, LOTE and technology begin a true love of learning. The Middle School program from Years 5 to 9 is both challenging and engaging as we introduce a wide range of studies. These encourage students to discover and develop new talents and skills. An innovative program for gifted students, called ‘Q’ed’, provides a catalogue of challenging projects with collaborative learning to ensure the talents of these students are given every chance to blossom. Great opportunities are available to students to participate in sporting teams, musical ensembles, bands or choirs, along with dance groups and musical productions. Such activities and competition develop students’ confidence in their own abilities and establish good self-esteem, which is vital during the early adolescent years. The Senior School provides excellent opportunities for students in Years 10 to 12 to achieve at their highest level, with a wide choice of VCE, VET, and VCAL pathways linked to anticipated tertiary studies. Student leadership and individual staff mentoring for Year 12 students enhance the learning experience for those about to graduate. With smaller class sizes and additional class time at Year 12, as well as dedicated specialist staff and top class learning facilities, students study in an environment conducive to success.
