SCHOOL MENTOR

Introduction to Brindabella Christian College, Canberra

Vision Statement
The vision of Brindabella Christian College is to advance a community of Wisdom, Integrity, Service and
Excellence in and through Christian Education.

Background
For over forty years Brindabella Christian College, formerly the O’Connor Christian School, has provided a
holistic approach to education based on Christian values and beliefs.

Preparing young people in a changing world which can be volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous, demands
that the significant adults in a young person’s life lead and learn alongside them with purpose, compassion and
humility. The College seeks to actively influence the lives of a greater number of young people. It believes that
the most authentic way of achieving access to those students is via the offering of a high-quality, excellent
education program. This is the core business of Brindabella Christian College.

The College supports Christian families, and those supportive of the Christian worldview, to raise their children
in a safe and caring environment. The school aims to partner with parents in the education of their children,
through a Christian education program, supported by Christian staff.

The College is a member of Christian Schools Australia, and the Association of Independent Schools, ACT.

Values
As a Christian school, we value – Wisdom, Integrity, Service, and Excellence

Mission
Our mission is to offer high quality Christian education where parents and staff partner together to make a
difference in our students’ lives, by helping them grow in wisdom, live life with integrity, be empowered to
serve, and to cultivate an excellent spirit.

Immutable Tenets
An important component of the ethos of the College is a set of tenets which Brindabella Christian College holds
as sacrosanct. These are central to the identity and tradition of the school and will not be compromised under
any circumstance. These include:

o Christian education where God is present in the daily life and work of the College
o Upholding of traditional, conservative Biblical values
o Co-education from Early Learning to Year 12
o Service to others
o Non-selective entry school
o Individual focus on each student achieving their personal best
o Strong community connection.

Operational Philosophy of the School
The core work of Brindabella Christian College is to provide to students a high-quality education through a
Christian worldview, from the infant developmental stage to the completion of the secondary years.

In order to achieve this, the College is aiming to regularly review and improve academic programs respond
operationally to best meet emerging needs, conduct regular staff reviews to improve targeting of professional
development for staff, maintain pastoral care for students, and employ high quality staff to support the
teaching and Christian philosophies of Brindabella Christian College and its future growth.

Governance

strategic view, the schools’ policies, philosophy of the school and regulatory compliance.
