Coeducational - Kindergarten to Year 12, Day and Boarding, Anglican 

Peninsula Grammar School holds its place as the preeminent school on the Mornington Peninsula. An open-entry, 

coeducational school, located one hour’s drive south of Melbourne and situated on 80 acres of gently sloping natural 

bushland, it is renowned for the depth of opportunity it affords each child. With an exceptional record of academic 

achievement, a strong sporting program, and a performing arts program of distinction, the School is inherently proud 

of its culture of excellence. 

Facilities 

Located in one of the most enviable corners of the country, 

extending across Mount Eliza and with stunning views of Port 

Phillip Bay, the School is renowned for its evolving landscape 

and the considerations it makes when building new learning 

environments. Its most recent building, ALATUS, combines 

technology and critical thinking in a purpose-built environment 

that challenges students to rethink their learning and discover 

fact from fiction. Its state-of-the-art Science Centre provides 

a pre-tertiary context of exploration where theoretical studies 

and laboratory experiences work hand in hand to deepen 

students’ inquisitive nature and innate understanding of the 

scientific world. With three gymnasiums, two outdoor heated

highly experienced leaders in the VCE, the program ensures 

every child experiences success throughout their final years at 

the School.

musical experiences from the Junior Years Music program to 

VCE Music Performance in conjunction with our exceptional 

instrumental, ensemble and vocal programs.

incredible experiences and opportunities to showcase 

their talents on stage through the Junior Years Mini Musical 

Extravaganza, Middle Years and Senior Years productions. These 

productions set the standard for student performance and are 

highly anticipated calendar events across its community. 

Sport

Associated Grammar Schools of Victoria (AGSV), the School 

delivers a strong sporting program, particularly across women’s 

AFL, touch football and cricket. Middle and Senior School 

students compete in winter and summer sports competition 

to expand and enrich their learning, growth and resilience far 

beyond the classroom setting. 

Wellbeing & Positive Education

positive education, the School provides students with a better 

understanding of their emotions, existence and impact within 

the world. Its strong pastoral support network work closely 

with families to ensure student growth and development is 

experienced through a holistic framework. 

Art, Design and Technology 

From Kinder to Year 12, students are encouraged to develop 

an awareness of how art and design process communicates 

values, ideas and meaning, and allows students to ‘think, 

imagine, create and appreciate’. The School regularly hosts 

spectacular art shows and produces graduates who continue 

to pursue their passions as a profession through the Victorian 

College of the Arts.

achievement, and offer exceptional students the opportunity 

to reach their full potential. Its diverse array of scholarship

Year 12 

A learning community 

Brighton Grammar is one of Australia’s 

leading independent boys’ school, with strong 

community traditions and a culture of excellence. 

Founded in 1882, the school has a non-selective 

enrolment policy, with over 1500 students from 

ELC - VCE. 

It is a learning community passionate about 

inspiring and guiding boys on their journey 

to manhood. Our approach is founded on 

evidenced-based research which integrates 

with best practice teaching and learning. As 

a single-campus school, every boy is known, 

encouraged and celebrated for his individual 

passions and talents. We are guided by the 

traditions and practices of the Anglican Church 

and our 4 core values of respect, integrity 

accountability and passion. 

Come on a tour to get an authentic feel 

of the facilities, programs and educational 

opportunities we can offer your son. 

Why a boy’s school? 

Boys thrive in a culture that understands, 

accepts and celebrate them. Studies have 

shown that boys’ schools help to build positive 

masculinity and general wellbeing for boys. 

Their social awareness and interpersonal skills 

are improved, giving them the confidence to 

know and be themselves. 

With higher rates of self-esteem, boys perform 

better academically, have higher participation 

rates in arts and music, and develop closer 

relationships within cohorts, leading to greater 

empathy and emotional awareness. 

Learning how to learn 

Our strong student engagement focus, coupled 

with a commitment to small class sizes, has 

resulted in exceptional academic results. We use 

coaching methods to foster a high-performance 

learning environment. Boys receive one-onone 

coaching but they also learn to coach one 

another. Our teachers are trained in instructional 

coaching, ensuring all staff are continually 

improving their teaching practice. Via our 

Effective Learner model, boys acquire the skills 

to take responsibility for their own learning and 

engagement. Our senior students recognise 

the benefit of working together in syndicates to 

support one another. 

Positive school culture 

Our Wellbeing program is embedded in the 

curriculum, to develop a positive school culture 

that empowers students in their studies and lives. 

Mindfulness is a school-wide program designed 

to focus on the boys’ mental health, to boost 

emotional intelligence and resilience. Students 

are offered innovative and evidence-informed 

initiatives in positivity masculinity, stressmanagement, 

personal development and selfhealth 

practices. Our Wellbeing Centre provides 

a physical context for students and parents to 

learn about positive psychology and wellness 

programs. Improved wellbeing outcomes have 

led to greater student engagement and stronger 

academic performance. 

Tomorrow’s entrepreneurs 

When boys make their own learning choice, and 

make an emotional connection, then learning 

is enriched. In an era when traditional careers 

are changing, we recognise that tomorrow’s 

entrepreneurs should be nurtured at school 

and encourage boys to adapt to this shift and 

harness new opportunities. From building a 

motorbike or designing a sensory rubrics cube 

to making and racing a miniature F1 car, boys 

are supported daily to develop an enterprising 

mindset. They learn the key 21st century skills 

of critical reasoning, collaboration and most 

importantly creative thinking, identified as the 

most important leadership competency for a 

successful enterprise of the future. 

Three cornered partnership 

BGS recognises that each boy’s success in his 

educational journey is optimised with the active 

engagement of parents and advocates for a 

three-cornered partnership between the boys, 

families and the school. The Crowther Centre 

keeps parents up-to-date on effective learning 

strategies and offers a comprehensive parent 

education program in the form of webinars, 

workshops, a podcast, position papers and 

resources for parents to access.

Student achievement and the pursuit of 

excellence are sources of great pride at 

Caulfield Grammar School - but it is not why we 

exist. Our purpose is to enable quality learning 

every day in every experience for every learner 

for life. 

Girls and boys are provided with continuity 

of learning throughout their entire school 

journey from Early Learning to Year 12. As 

a multi-campus School, established in 1881, 

each campus has its own unique learning 

environment and sense of culture. What unites 

us as one school, and helps each student find 

their place, are our purpose and our values. 

State-of-the-art technology, blended with 

modern learning spaces and outstanding 

facilities, ensures that students can follow their 

individual passions. Students are nurtured in 

the way we teach, the breadth of co-curricular 

offerings, and our commitment to every 

learner’s wellbeing. 

Our educators take a personalised approach to 

learning, constantly seeking out international 

best practice and innovation to anticipate and 

plan for emerging skills and careers. In the 

ELC and junior years, learning experiences 

and spaces are designed to cultivate creativity, 

curiosity, connection and compassion. Our 

broad Years 7 and 8 core-curriculum ensures 

a strong foundation for success in senior 

years – including Learning Mentors monitoring

Diversity, Living Wholeheartedly), and through

WHAT MAKES US SPECIAL 

We are an all-girls’ day and boarding college 

located in Kew in Melbourne’s east. Set on 17 

acres of beautiful gardens and with our own 

oval, we offer innovative educational programs 

that reflect the future. Contemporary Catholic 

and FCJ values underpin the way we do things 

at Gen. This means we believe in living with 

purpose and serving with passion. We live our 

vision through embracing the talents, potential 

and dignity of each person. We achieve this by: 

• Celebrating individuality and 

understanding that every learning journey 

is different. 

• Offering innovative educational programs 

which reflect the world we are preparing 

students to succeed in. 

• Partnering with parents in raising 

insightful young women prepared for 

more than just exams. 

Each student has the opportunity to be their 

best self, with a zest for life and the generosity 

and confidence to use their talents and gifts in 

the service of others. 

REIMAGINING EDUCATION 

Genazzano focuses on providing a diverse 

and innovative education, relative to students 

now and for their future. Genazzano’s bespoke 

programs reflect student interest, nurture 

aspirations and ignite creativity, taking learners 

beyond the conventional classroom and 

curriculum. Our co-curricular programs from 

Year 5 and the exciting Microcredential Program 

from Year 9, allow students to undertake a range 

of courses to develop personal competencies 

and professional skills around their own areas 

of interest. Our specialised programs, like the 

Year 8 “be” program and the Year 9 Immersion 

Program prepare students not just for exams 

but also for life after school. We focus on 

the development of complex competencies 

and capabilities that enrich students’ ability 

for adaptability, interaction, personal growth, 

confidence and tenacity. 

From Year 10, Genazzano also offers extension 

and professional learning opportunities 

‘beyond’ the school curriculum. These typically 

have a practical experience, folio or miniinternship 

component. Students design their 

own personalised and flexible program aligned 

with their interests, ambitions and individual 

circumstances. Known as ‘Studio Beyond’, 

this initiative revolves around four Centres 

of Excellence: Global Enterprises, Innovation 

and Technology, Sports Development and 

Creative Industries. This allows VCE students 

the opportunity to design their own pathway 

for success through the traditional academic 

VCE, VCE Vocational Major (VM) or Victorian 

Pathways Certificate (VPC).

Mentone Grammar is the benchmark for 

outstanding co-education in Melbourne’s 

Southeast, offering a progressive learning 

environment with wide-ranging opportunities 

for students from our Early Learning Centre 

through to Year 12. 

We are renowned for our successful Together- 

Apart-Together learning model, where students 

learn in single-gender or co-educational 

classes depending on the year level. This 

model, together with our Campus structure, 

offers the best of both worlds and provides the 

ideal learning environment for each defined 

age and stage. 

We are conveniently located by the beach in 

the beautiful bayside suburb of Mentone with 

easy access to public transport and offer an 

extensive network of school buses. 

We are also fortunate to own 17 hectares of 

quality sports playing fields at Keysborough 

and a beachside camp at Shoreham on the 

Mornington Peninsula. 

With a clear vision and mission, embedded 

values, and strong leadership, together with 

continued investment in the best staff and 

facilities, it is no wonder Mentone Grammar 

students consistently deliver some of the 

best results in the state. More importantly, our 

Mentonians graduate as Happy, Healthy and 

High Achieving young people ready to thrive in 

a world beyond school. 

We understand that choosing the right school 

can be difficult, but our friendly Enrolments Team 

is here to support you every step of the way to 

make the best decision for your family. Please 

don’t hesitate to contact us with your questions 

or for more information on our Learning and 

Teaching offerings, facilities and community. 

• Holistic Education - Our extended program of 

experiential learning from sport and performing 

arts to Army Cadets and Learning Journeys 

complements our core academic curriculum. 

Students can explore their passions and 

develop new friendships through shared 

interests and experiences. 

• Campus and Facilities - Our educational 

environment is designed to inspire curiosity, 

enable excellence, and feel like a second 

home to students. Our Campus structure 

provides a safe, welcoming cohort experience 

to support our students at each stage of their 

educational journey. 

• Happy, Healthy & High Achieving - Our focus on 

wellbeing supports every student to feel valued, 

heard and celebrated for their individuality.

health, and critical to achieving personal success. 

• Community - We have a vibrant and welcoming 

community of parents, alumni (Mentonians) and 

partners who provide an extended network of 

support for our students and our School as a 

whole. This incredible community is one of the 

reasons we have become the school of choice

Open Heart, Open Mind, Infinite Possibilities 

Our holistic approach to educating young women 

unites academic endeavour with deep care 

for each child. Founded in 1888, we have an 

unwavering commitment to nurturing future-ready 

young women. 

Educating for Human Flourishing 

Our students’ wellbeing is at the core of their 

personal endeavour and achievement. As such, it 

will always be our first priority. We are committed to 

supporting the emotional and social development 

of each student, and the delivery of our Pastoral 

Care program is central to this. 

We live in a rapidly changing world, one that 

provides challenges and opportunities for our 

future generations. For our young women to fully 

embrace the future and to help build a better 

society, we must provide them with the necessary 

capabilities, knowledge and skills. 

Our current strategic plan recognises the 

challenges of our ever-changing world and how 

education must equip students with the skills and 

mindset required for tertiary education and the 

workplace. Our School’s Future Fit Framework 

underpins the learning and teaching of our school. 

Based on the values of Purpose, Excellence, 

Care, Hope and Connection and the actions of 

Developing Thinking, Deepening Understanding, 

Discovering Possibilities, it specifically links 

wellbeing and learning, aiming to create 

ambassadors of positive change. 

Our students learn from highly qualified and 

passionate teachers, many of whom are curriculum 

experts. Within small classes, our teachers 

embrace each child as an individual, meeting their 

learning and wellbeing needs. 

Learning in our Junior School, Joigny, focuses on 

building upon each child’s natural enthusiasm and 

curiosity within a caring environment. 

In Senior School, academic endeavour and the 

holistic, personal development of each student 

are at the core of our focus. As a result, our 

young women flourish and achieve exceptional 

VCE results. 

Co-Curricular 

We are committed to a well-rounded education and 

provide a wide range of co-curricular opportunities 

for students to explore in creative and performing 

arts, sport, public speaking, special interest clubs, 

leadership, competitions, travel and more. 

Sacré Cœur is a member of Girls Sport Victoria, 

an interschool sporting association with 24 

member schools, offering 16 sports. Our respected 

Brynmawr Music School provides lessons and the 

opportunity to participate in 16 ensembles and

St Kevin’s College – who we are 

St Kevin’s College is a Catholic ELC to Year 

12 College for boys in the tradition of Blessed 

Edmund Rice. St Kevin’s has established itself 

as a leading Catholic school in Melbourne 

in academic excellence and co-curricular 

pursuits, with a strong emphasis on social 

justice and faith in action. 

The College strives for the development 

of the whole person, integrating spiritual 

development, academic success, cultural 

awareness and sporting participation in 

the context of the Catholic tradition, where 

students have a voice and agency. St Kevin’s 

has developed a strong academic tradition 

where each student is encouraged to take 

responsibility for his own learning in an 

environment that values knowledge, effort 

and resilience. 

St Kevin’s is a member of the Associated 

Public Schools of Victoria, through which 

the College participates in, and offers a 

comprehensive range of competitive sports 

with other APS schools. 

The College promotes a genuine commitment 

to social service, a commitment to student 

voice and leadership, and a commitment to 

offer a holistic education that aims to build 

character and develop students to grow in 

the fullness of life in our contemporary world. 

Our Past, Our Future 

“If we fail to adapt, we fail to move forward” - 

John Wooden. 

From humble beginnings more than 100 years 

ago on Albert Street, East Melbourne, to five 

campuses across Melbourne, St Kevin’s College 

continues to grow and adapt as it strives to 

educate boys to build a better world. When 

Archbishop Mannix first opened the school in 

1918, one could not have imagined the influence 

of its graduates across many fields through 

the years. And yet, while the College rightfully 

celebrates the many successes of Old Collegians 

and the great advancements to its facilities, the 

new 10-year Master Plan communicates the 

necessity of creating contemporary learning 

environments to prepare students for a changing 

world, while also aiding a holistic, flourishing 

learning and working environment. 

St Kevin’s College is a liberating Catholic school 

that is steadfast in its commitment to academic 

rigour in all learning and teaching in addition to 

concurrently promoting positive cultural, social 

and ethical behaviours. The College is focused 

on wellbeing for learning and life to ensure 

a culture of respect for all students, staff and 

families. A focus on being an inclusive community 

for the common good also ensures St Kevin’s 

College will continue to identify and respond to 

the opportunities for educational innovation and 

honour diversity and inclusion well into the future. 

• 5 Campuses – St Peter’s ELC, Glendalough, Waterford,

St Kevin’s College acknowledges we are on the

Kulin Nation, and pay our respect to their Elders 

past, present and emerging. 

We are inspired and nurtured by their physical and 

spiritual connections to the land, and together we 

work actively for reconciliation, justice, equity

learning, constantly seeking out international 

best practice and innovation to anticipate and 

plan for emerging skills and careers. In the

School Values (Pursuing Excellence, Inspiring 

Creativity, Thriving Together, Embracing 

Diversity, Living Wholeheartedly), and through 

our school-wide wellbeing framework

inspiring natural learning environment, to develop skills 

to consider the effect of their actions and lifestyle 

on the world around them.

privateschoolsguide.com/caulfield-grammar-school 




At Caulfield Grammar School, we nurture learners to become capable, curious and emotionally 

aware so they can create whatever path in life they choose. 

To empower your child to achieve this, we offer extensive broad and balanced experiences that 

develop global perspectives. Your child will come to know who they are, what they value and why 

they are valued in our supportive and dynamic learning environments. 

This provides more than an education. It equips them with the emotional and academic capabilities 

they need to be themselves, navigate life’s challenges and live with purpose and passion.

YARRA VALLEY GRAMMAR 


www.yvg.vic.edu.au 

Yarra Valley Grammar Overview 

Established in Ringwood in 1966 and set on 

a spacious 30-hectare single campus, Yarra 

Valley Grammar overlooks the picturesque 

Dandenong Ranges. Our students excel under 

the guidance of great teachers who love what 

they do and seek to inspire them to strive for 

excellence. The School offers an extensive 

range of contemporary opportunities and sets 

high standards of performance, encouraging 

all students to achieve their personal best. 

Great teachers are able to communicate 

complex concepts in simple ways. They 

can vary the way they teach to suit the way 

each student learns. This takes patience, 

flexibility and the ability to see things from the 

students’ perspective. Yarra Valley Grammar’s 

team of teachers know their material, love 

their subjects and love to teach. They have 

a genuine interest in getting to know their 

students, so they can teach them effectively, 

encourage them to achieve their best, identify 

issues or problems, and care for their welfare. 

Our teachers are also role models for our 

students, promoting the School’s core values 

such as respect, concern and action for others, 

and treating others as they wish to be treated. 

Scholarships 

High achieving students who are Australian 

citizens are eligible for scholarships in the 

areas of academia, music, sport and general 

excellence. Scholarships are offered to 

students entering Years 7 to 11. 

Outstanding VCE Results 

In 2023, our VCE students have once again 

achieved some excellent and well deserved 

results including: 

• Dux of the School - ATAR of 99.9 

• Over 49% of students received an ATAR 

greater than 90 

• The median ATAR was 89.5 

We believe that it is the powerful combination 

of hard work and dedication from our 

students and great leadership, guidance 

and commitment from their teachers which 

contributes to Yarra Valley Grammar’s 

consistently excellent VCE results. 

Early Learning Centre 

Children are learning from the time they enter 

the world and, from the time our youngest 

students enter Yarra Valley Grammar, we work 

with parents to continue to foster that sense of 

wonder and awe. Kindergarten programs are 

available for both three and four year olds, full 

and part time.

Year 12 

Marymede Catholic College is a young and 

vibrant school community with an established 

K-12 Campus in South Morang, and a new 7-12 

Campus and Early Learning Centre now open 

in Doreen. 

We aspire, in the Way of Mary, to give students 

a passion for life, a love of learning and a 

determination to be of service to others. 

Through our mission and values, we are 

committed to recognising and developing the 

unique potential of every student preparing 

them to adapt to change in the world we are 

living in. As a result, our curriculum nurtures 

the individual to achieve fullness of life through 

a balanced emphasis on academic, spiritual, 

social, emotional and physical wellbeing. 

Teachers and facilities provide students 

with every opportunity to develop their own 

interests and skills. An education at Marymede 

incorporates the latest technology, delivered 

by educators who deeply care about student 

outcomes, within an environment that stimulates 

and encourages excellence. The College 

places a strong, dual emphasis on personal 

endeavour and pastoral care, guiding our 

graduates to enter adulthood with confidence, 

self-esteem and the skills to successfully tackle 

life’s challenges. 

Our 2024 College Theme, Embracing Life’s 

Journey, encourages our students and 

community to recognise that life unfolds with 

various experiences - both positive and negative. 

Through the lens of scripture, we strive to instil 

the awareness that God and Jesus accompany 

us on this intricate journey, each and every step 

of the way. 

Our growth has seen our College expand, not 

only with a new Campus in Doreen, but with 

a renewed and refocused Mission and Vision, 

and the development of our four Key Directions; 

Encountering Christ, Empowering students 

to Flourish, Aspirations for All and Fostering a 

Positive Culture and Environment. 

Differentiated learning and individual pathways 

continue to be at the centre of all that we do, 

as our new Key Directions light the path for our 

students and staff - as together we grow, lead 

and serve. 

A message from the Principal, 

Mr Timothy Newcomb: 

We are passionate about developing the 

best pathways for our young people and 

committed to ensuring that each of our 

students receives an education tailored to 

their needs and interests. We strive to provide 

a learning environment where young people

for themselves and others, as this gives honour 

to God. We do this by employing talented and 

capable Christian teachers who are not only 

highly qualified and well regarded educators, 

but also can build quality relationships 

with students. 

Through academic and co-curricular programs, 

children are encouraged to pursue excellence 

in all they do. By participating in a rigorous, 

challenging and engaging curriculum, as well 

as a wide range of co-curricular programs, a 

student at Maranatha can access opportunity 

- the opportunity to learn, the opportunity 

to develop, the opportunity to serve, the 

opportunity to grow and the opportunity 

to excel. These opportunities help children 

develop their personal faith and build the 

necessary skills to succeed in life, no matter 

what pathway God may lead them. 

As a leader with over 50 years of experience 

in Christian education, Maranatha assists 

students in becoming ‘culture shapers’ rather 

than merely culture responders. It does this

by combining research-based high impact 

teaching and learning with a Biblical perspective 

to help students learn to think Christianly about 

the world in which they live. In a secular and 

diverse world, it is essential that Christians can 

defend the gospel intellectually (1 Peter 3:15) 

and have the wisdom and ability to discern right 

from wrong. In this way, Maranatha students 

go on to become leaders within and for their 

community by being good decision-makers, 

both for themselves and others. 

As importantly, we believe that as a school 

community, we must actively display God’s 

love for the world, as exemplified by Jesus. 

We do this not just in how we treat each other 

with courtesy and respect, or display personal 

integrity, but practically through community 

service in Melbourne and overseas. 

Completing a quality education at Maranatha 

means that boys and girls will have the skills 

to achieve success in their professional 

and personal lives, and so make a positive 

contribution to society, no matter where in the 

world God may lead them. 

Through a model of Christ 

centered education and constant 

encouragement, we seek to inspire 

children to develop and use their 

God given talents to be the best they 

can be, both for themselves and 

others, as this gives honour to God.

We see the development of academic 

learning, personal wellbeing, and student 

engagement as being interdependent. As a 

result, we promote the development of student 

outcomes across the essential elements of 

learning: the understanding of concepts, the 

acquisition of knowledge, the mastery of skills 

and the ability to perform meaningful tasks in 

real-world settings. We understand that such 

deep learning happens best in safe, supportive 

and respectful environments where students 

can take risks, question their assumptions, 

respond creatively, and explore new ways 

of thinking. For this reason, our approach to 

teaching is paced to students’ learning needs, 

tailored to their learning preferences, and built 

around their specific interests as learners.

Leadership Opportunities 

The development of leadership skills is one of the most important aspects of every student’s education. At Bacchus Marsh 

Grammar we are driven by the belief in “Leading as Service”. That true leadership comes from a desire to serve and assist 

others and the environments and settings in which they work and live. The service focused leader puts the needs of others 

first and helps others achieve their goals and do their best. 

We are proud of the range of opportunities at our School for students to develop and practise their leadership skills 

through participating in activities and refining existing skills. 

Our leadership programs start in the early years of Middle School and reinforced with a series of graded opportunities in 

higher year levels. 

Staughton Vale Program 

Our purpose built and picturesque Staughton Vale Campus is just 20 minutes from our Maddingley Campus and on the 

fringe of the Brisbane Ranges National Park. From Prep to Year 12, all students access the Staughton Vale Campus for 

excursions and learning activities as part of their education journey. 

Boasting more than 200 undulating acres of fertile pastures, orchards, dams and natural forest, Staughton Vale enhances 

the learning experiences of all students. It also heightens the relationship and understanding of each student’s impact on 

the local natural environment and their wider role as a global environmental citizen.

Authentic Experiential Learning 

Creating authentic experiences for students 

to build capacity to understand who they are 

in their world, and others living in different 

worlds, is a crucial part of Christian College’s 

educational perspective – from Kindergarten 

and Prep through to Year 12. 

Our Bush Kinder and Bush Prep programs 

provide access to spaces that allow children to 

be immersed in sensory experiences in nature. 

From Prep – Y4, we offer an excellent core 

learning program and unparalleled specialty 

areas taught by dedicated staff, including Music, 

Japanese, Phys Ed, Library, Art and Digital 

Technologies. 

Our Languages program features specialist 

language and native speakers teaching 

Japanese from K - 12 and Indonesian from 

Y5 - 12. Underpinning this are decades-long 

relationships with sister schools – Naga High 

School in Iwade, Japan (30 years) and SMA 

Negeri 2 in Mataram, Lombok (25+ years). 

There are short-term and long-term exchanges 

in Indonesia and Japan, where students stay 

with local families and live their daily routines. 

Reciprocal visits are made by our sister schools 

to Geelong. 

Our Instrumental Music offerings at all 

campuses, give students many opportunities to 

develop and showcase their talents, solo and in 

ensembles, in authentic performance settings – 

locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. 

Many Christian College graduates have gone 

on to enjoy highly successful music careers. 

Another unique offering is the Year 9 

Transformation Program, which includes half a 

term living and working at the College’s Back 

Creek Farm, a commercial dairy operation 

near Ballarat. Here, students undertake a 

variety of tasks essential for the running of the 

farm. They also spend time in our Back Creek 

Café in Meredith, living the ‘paddock to plate’ 

experience and learning a range of hospitalityrelated 

skills. 

Further immersive learning comes with the Our 

World elective programs at our Senior campus. 

Classroom-based learning harnesses student 

passions about making a difference in their 

world. Powerful, experiential learning occurs 

when they visit Central Australian communities 

or communities we have befriended overseas in 

East Timor, Vietnam and Cambodia. 

We invite you to visit our website, make contact 

and book a tour – come and see for yourself 

how The Learning That Matters is effectively 

and powerfully delivered through our range of 

innovative core and specialist area programs.
