ABOUT OUR SCHOOL
THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL CURRICULUM TAUGHT FROM A CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE
A New, Innovative School is Shaping our Children’s Future in the Border Region
At Border Rivers Christian College, we pride ourselves on delivering a personalised yet challenging curriculum that encourages every child to achieve their potential. The Australian Curriculum is taught throughout the college with many opportunities for students to succeed.
Our Primary School has embedded research practices to ensure the best possible opportunities for students. Teaching Literacy and Numeracy blocks in the mornings, we ensure that subjects such as Art, Science, and Music are also delivered. Having a well-balanced curriculum enables all students at BRCC the best possible chance to engage in learning.
Our classes have capped numbers to ensure all our students are known. With small classes starting in Prep, each child is given a positive, safe learning environment as they commence their educational journey . All other classes aim to provide students with the best possible learning experience.
Students in years 7 to 10 are presented with a wide variety of subject offerings. In addition to core subjects, students are able to select electives. All secondary teachers are qualified and specialised in their subject areas. Students are guided and supported on their individual pathways in years 11 – 12. We will ensure that students can access the prerequisites for any university course.
Students in Years 11 and 12 can review and change their subject selections at the end of semester 1 through consultation with their Homeroom Teacher, Mentor and the Principal.

POLICIES
'CLEAR' VALUES
The college expectations are CLEAR, and students are expected to respond positively to these. Being a member of Border Rivers Christian College means that students will value:
DISCIPLINARY MEASURES
No student has the right to hinder or disrupt the learning of others. Bullying or harassment is not tolerated. Students are taught moral values and counselled through any difficult matters. Students recognise that their teachers care about them, and are willing to work with them for successful outcomes. Students are assisted to become confident that they can succeed to make things better and resolve internal conflicts. The disciplinary process aids students in owning a sense of responsibility and accountability.
OUR BASIS OF FAITH
Border Rivers Christian College is a non-denominational school, affirming all faithful Christian expressions, and committed to teaching and living out the truths of traditional Christianity. The College has a Statement of Faith as part of its legal basis in its constitution. The following is an expression of what that statement contains, written to show how it relates to our educational goals.
