About Our School

As a Kindergarten to Year 12 Christian College, we help students on their journey of learning for life. The end result is students who are more compassionate and confident and who possess the academic skills and character for success in life. We achieve this by working with our students to discover and develop their passions, skills and abilities.

Our College fosters an environment for learning that provides opportunities to challenge, develop and build underlying belief systems that equip our students with attitudes, behaviours and habits for success in whatever field or endeavour they decide to pursue.

We strive to provide a vibrant and safe learning environment where students gain the confidence in themselves to meet life’s challenges, build lasting relationships and gain a clear understanding of who they are in Christ.

Our Values

Our classes are led by caring and highly skilled teachers who uphold Christian values and educate each child as an individual.

Through leading by example, we teach children to treat each other with respect, work together, assume responsibility for their attitudes and actions — and demonstrate a loving and caring disposition.

Relationships are formed by love, respect, honesty, positive examples, guidance, responsibility, logical consequences and forgiveness.

We believe that friendship, respect and participation are central to a positive learning environment and to achieving strong academic results.

Learning

We endeavour to create an environment at Christian Outreach College Toowoomba that is conducive to developing strong self-worth and building on individual talents. We believe that a well-rounded approach to education is central to our children’s overall development.

We provide a broad range of opportunities, which opens up a wider world where students can challenge themselves in unexpected ways — and discover what they are truly capable of.

Helping students identify and develop their talents requires dedicated, hard working, and gifted teachers. Our staff are committed to making a positive and effective educational experience for every student.

The pursuits we offer have been designed to engage the inquiring mind of any child of any age. The search for innovative ways to make that connection is a key to our belief that our work is never complete.

Not only does this create amazing enthusiasm in our students, it kindles an awareness of their own ability to bring positive change to the world.

Our goals in the Senior School are not only to prepare our students for the world of work or study, but to graduate young people who know who they are, where they come from and where they are going in God’s plan for their lives.

The ‘seamless’ nature of the curriculum ensures a smooth transition between Primary and Senior schooling.

Our goals in the Senior School are not only to prepare our students for the world of work or study, but to graduate young people who know who they are, where they come from and where they are going in God’s plan for their lives.

Students discover what they are truly capable of as they develop socially and explore new subjects and interests. They are encouraged to apply these to their lifelong learning and faith.

Pastoral Care

Through nurture, pastoral care and fostering a vibrant faith, students learn to understand and guide their lives by the Biblical principles and Christian values of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

These are the tools that equip students to make good choices throughout their lives and help them develop self-respect, dignity and strength of character.

The College community is like a family, supporting students throughout their education with classroom and Pastoral Care teachers, Year-Level Leaders, the Chaplain, student counsellors and a Careers Coordinator.

Learning beyond the classroom

We do not limit learning to the classroom. We see the whole world as a source for learning. We have many Enrichment and Special Interest activities which provide opportunities to explore personal interests at a deeper level.
