Message from the CEO

There are few things more important than a great education!

The central aim of Christian College Geelong is to provide our students with ‘The Learning That Matters’. At Christian College we provide an enriching educational experience for young people, inspiring a love of learning and empowering them to meet the challenges of a changing world. By nurturing a student’s spirit and character, we build a sense of self-worth, hope and confidence.

We are proud of our reputation, built over more than 35 years, for providing an excellent education, balanced with strong Christian foundations and supported by the highest quality of pastoral care. Education is offered from Kinder to Year 12, across our campuses in Belmont, Highton, Waurn Ponds, Drysdale, Scotsburn and Torquay. The Christian College Institute of Teaching and Learning expands our education offering to the Tertiary level.

By advertising with us, your company shares this partnership, and these same goals and aspirations. I invite you to join with us during 2017 and 2018 as we look to build upon an already firm foundation.

Chief Executive Officer Christian College Geelong
