PREP
Establishing solid foundations for a fulfilled life
Our Freshwater Christian College Prep program offers so much more than just an education because we are a community that cares for and nurtures every child intellectually, physically, socially and spiritually.
Freshwater Christian College has a vision for an education system that helps all young people achieve the skills, knowledge and confidence that they need to succeed in the 21st century.
Every parent’s desire is that their child is happy and successful — at school, in work and in life. We know that children who get a great start in school have more success throughout their learning and their lives. So what are the Freshwater advantages for your child’s start in their school life?
A safe and secure Prep environment - You won’t have to worry about your young child because they can learn and play in their own secure area.
- Small class sizes - We only cater for two Prep classes and the numbers within them are small enough to ensure that they are given plenty of individual attention and instruction.
- Wonderful experienced and caring teachers - Our staff is trained to provide a stimulating and encouraging program which is founded on all the Qld State expectations.
- Sound Christian values – All that we do at Freshwater Christian College is an expression of our faith in Jesus Christ. We teach, as we live our lives, with Christ centred principles and our whole community is a reflection of our values such as honesty, caring, respect and honouring others.
Our Prep program is specifically designed to prepare students for their entry into Year 1, and is available for children who turn 5 by June 30 in the year they start the program.
Through a semi-structured play based approach, children’s learning revolves around factors seen as best preparing them for a successful start to the schooling experience. Our Prep program uses Early Years Curriculum Guidelines developed by the Queensland Studies Authority, along with other school based curriculum documents. Prep students are involved in many curricular activities such as Japanese, Music, Library and P.E. All of our classrooms are air-conditioned which helps provide a comfortable and productive learning environment.
