[EduCativ]

Kerang Christian College is a friendly, small-sized school set on a well-designed campus in Kerang catering for boys and girls from Prep to Year 12. The College is a non-denominational Christian College that commenced in 1983.

The College aims to challenge each student to achieve their best while providing students with an opportunity to study a broad range of subjects. While developed to meet the requirements of the Australian Curriculum Framework and government requirements, the College curriculum provides students with an excellent opportunity to study subjects across a wide range of learning areas. The College has developed the school curriculum to still place a significant emphasis on Literacy and Numeracy.

Primary School students enjoy studying various specialist classes, including Health and Physical Education, ICT, LOTE (Auslan), Performing Arts, and Visual Arts.

Students in the Secondary School have studied over twenty elective and specialist classes during the past two years. Some of the subjects that have been offered include Advanced Mathematics, Advanced Science, Athlete Development, Business Studies, ICT Multimedia, Legal Studies, Psychology, Science Design and Engineering, Sports Performance, Textiles, and more! The College is pleased to offer a broad range of VCE studies to our Senior School students. Students study a wide range of VCE subjects, including Accounting, Biology, Business Management, Chemistry, Computing, English, Health & Human Development, Legal Studies, General Mathematics, Mathematical Methods, Physical Education, Physics, Psychology, Systems Engineering and Theatre Studies.

During 2015, the College participated in an innovative video conference partnership with other Christian Schools in our region. This provided the College with greater flexibility to best meet each student's individual needs undertaking the VCE. In 2016, we will look for the most appropriate way to deliver VCE studies to all of our VCE students.

Students are encouraged to participate in a wide variety of extra-curricular activities. Many of these activities have a community focus but are also in place to make learning authentic. Students can participate in camps, excursions, sporting events, musicals, competitions, incursions, chapels, assemblies, and much more.

Our beautiful school grounds include a mixture of original buildings and modern facilities such as our Visual Arts Wing, landscaped, eco-friendly gardens, and specialist classrooms in the Secondary School. Our modern learning environments provide our students with flexible learning space to learn in ways that best meet their needs.

The motto at Kerang Christian College is Integrity, Faith, and Family. The College believes it is vital for students to develop sound values and develop Christian faith and character in students. Furthermore, the College aims to equip students for service and citizenship to express their Christian faith.

It is our prayer and desire that every student will have a positive experience at school. A positive experience involves students developing healthy relationships, achieving their personal best, maintaining physical and emotional well-being, and developing a greater understanding of Christian faith and character.
