Our Vision and Values

The vision of Brindabella Christian College is to advance a community of wisdom in and through Christian education.

At Brindabella Christian College our students are encouraged to live full, productive and purposeful lives. They are encouraged to appreciate that beliefs underlie values and that these are lived out in practice. We believe that wisdom comes from deep understanding, deep connections and rich experiences and requires strength of character as well as the application of knowledge and discernment. By the end of each stage within the College (Early Learning Centre, Junior School, Middle School and Senior School), it is our hope that students will be able to demonstrate understanding and action of our W.I.S.E. values of Wisdom, Integrity, Service and Excellence as indicated in the following statements:

The College also supports the R.O.C.K. values of Respect, Obedience, Confidence and Kindness.
