Welcome to Southern Vales Christian College. We love our school and our fabulous school community and work hard to ensure each student has a sense of belonging in a safe environment. Southern Vales Christian College is - one school on two campuses at Morphett Vale and Aldinga - and we cater for students from Foundation to Year 12. We are a ministry of the Harvest Australia Church.
Our college is a Christ-centered, child-focussed school filled with learning and discovery, deep understanding, thinking, excitement, fun, creativity, color, music, sport, drama, challenge, celebration, care and friendship, family, encouragement, a love of God in Jesus and a love of the fullness of life. Our teaching philosophy is based on the belief that children are capable of thinking deeply and creatively. Each student is created with an insatiable, innate drive to explore and understand the world around them.
Southern Vales Christian College students present themselves with an engaging mixture of openness, sincerity, and passion. Be it in classrooms, on the sporting field, on stage, debating, chess club, fashion parades, engineering challenges, or in worship assemblies, they are enthusiastic and determined they care for each other and they aspire to learn.
A key to our success is the belief that students respond positively and engage effectively when teachers establish clear expectations both academically and behaviorally with a strong sense of belonging. We believe God has placed each student in our care and they are highly valued. In our SVCC ELC, Jesus is the center of all things, where life flows from Him and we live in His life each day. We believe children:
- Are joyful souls who take pleasure in celebrating life
- Are curious, creative and wonder drives their learning process
- Are powerful, capable, and resilient, able to be the main characters of their learning process
- Have a voice and many different ways to express themselves
- Bring knowledge and understanding with them to build connections.
- Have a natural desire and need for connection and relationships
- Are unique and each journey has its own pathway
Express their worship and understanding of God
