Students on the right path to be a school provide parents with assistance in directing students on the right path toward intellectual, emotional, physical, and spiritual growth. In realizing our Vision, we seek to assist parents in their God-given task of nurturing their children, preparing them for adulthood, equipping them for service, and guiding them toward a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. We aim to do this by:
- treating each student as a unique individual
- developing in students the ability to fulfill their God-given direction in life
- maintaining Godly standards and promoting a Biblical world view
- motivating students to succeed
- providing qualified staff dedicated to training students according to Biblical principles and who recognize the great responsibility and influence they have in the education of children
- providing an educational program and facilities to allow the practical education of children
- bringing glory to God in all that we do
The Australian Curriculum is integrated throughout the school and, as part of our educational framework, provide:
- Equitable and inclusive learning
- Opportunity to maximize learning
- Opportunity to gain knowledge, understanding, and skills
- Disciplined-based and interdisciplinary learning
- Opportunities to promote learning within local cultural contexts
- Individual pathways to support successful learning
- Individual educational programs with the opportunity to close the gap between advantaged and disadvantaged students.
Our Kindergarten at Geneva uses a Reading Readiness Programme. This program is designed to develop essential skills that prepare a child to learn to read. We use cartoon animal songs and stories, simple activities in specially designed booklets, physical development sessions, and Bible character-building stories. All these together foster learning of the letter sounds, encourage understanding of number concepts, strengthen memory, visual, auditory, and co-ordination skills, and build Christian character.
Geneva Christian College is part of the National Schools Chaplaincy & Student Welfare Program. Devonport Chaplaincy Inc. has been chosen as our Chaplaincy provider, and Mr. Chris Stafferton has continued as our school chaplain. The National School Chaplaincy and Student Welfare Program (NSCSWP) provides funding to schools to access a school chaplain or student welfare worker's services. Devonport Chaplaincy Inc. takes care of the Federal Government's administrative work, and they take care of our Chaplain with support, training, and encouragement. In contrast, he takes care of students, staff, and families of our school.
