Out of School Hours Care Assistant Director

Our Purpose
Equipping for life
Our purpose as a College is to equip for life. We believe our task is to help children develop their academic,
social, physical, emotional and spiritual potential by providing a caring and supportive Christian education.
All of our teachers are committed Christians who aim to model Christian values and educate our students
from a biblical worldview, equipping them with the skills, knowledge and wisdom they need to face life’s
challenges. This includes helping our students know who they are in God and encouraging them in their
relationship with God. Because we know that if our students can leave our College loving God, loving
people and loving life – then no matter what they choose to do they will make a huge difference in this
world.
