Immersion in a genuine Prep experience

Christian College’s Discover Prep Week runs from August 7 to 11.

The Bellarine Campus in Drysdale invites you to immerse yourself in the College’s unparalleled Prep program, including opportunities to join a class for a firsthand experience.

The Prep program features strong core elements focusing on literacy, numeracy and integrated studies, complemented by six other learning areas – music, Japanese, art, health and PE, library and digitech – which are delivered by specialist teachers.

Head of Bellarine Campus Mr Nick Watson said during Discover Prep Week three information sessions, and two opportunities to participate in the Prep experience, are offered.

“The information sessions provide an overview of our outstanding Prep learning program, and the opportunity for people to meet teachers and campus leaders, and have their questions answered,” he said.

“The Prep Experience sessions are where interested parents, and their children, can get a genuine insider’s view by being part of a Prep class and participating in learning activities in real time.

“In Discover Prep Week, we are not simply offering to tell families about what we do, we are letting them observe and be part of what we do. We believe this provides a deeper, more experiential way of discovering Christian College’s approach to educating the whole person through a mix of curriculum and care – right from the start of the school journey.”

Bellarine Campus extends from Prep to Year 9, before students transition to Year 10 at Christian College’s Senior Campus in Waurn Ponds.

Mr Watson said there are still vacancies at Bellarine Campus for Prep in 2024 and beyond. Enrolments are also open for other year levels, including some very limited places for Year 7 in 2024.

In Discover Prep Week, there are Prep information sessions running on Tuesday August 8 between 9am and 10am with two sessions offered on Thursday August 10 – one from noon to 1pm and an evening session from 7.30pm to 8.30pm.

Two Prep Experience sessions are running – one on Wednesday August 9 between 9.30am and 10.30am and another on Thursday August 10 between 2pm and 3pm.
