Q. Is bullying a problem at Kerang Christian College?
A. There have been few bullying issues at Kerang Christian College. Being a small school we have been able to maintain a small community feel in the College. However, the College has been proactive in developing an inclusive culture for students. We teach students to be resilient and to refuse to be involved in any bullying incidents. Students are encouraged to not to stand by and watch, but to fetch help. If students know of serious bullying, they are asked to tell a trusted staff member or parent. The school has a Bullying Policy and processes have been developed to resolve any issues before they escalate into something more serious.
Q. Why should I send my child to a Christian school?
A. At Kerang Christian College we offer a Christian education for students beginning in Prep through to Year 8. We aim to meet the social, emotional, physical and academic learning needs of each student. We guide our students' faith journey through devotions, weekly chapels and by integrating Biblical truth into every subject. The College also has a focus on academic excellence in the core subject areas. We foster an environment where students can work towards spiritual maturity and academic excellence.
