Freshwater Christian College aims to provide quality education, which will equip students to be contributors to society whilst at the same time supporting and promoting Christian faith in their lives. It is a requirement that all staff members be practicing members of a Christian church so as to role model this faith and lifestyle to students. Leading from this faith base, the College aims to provide an environment for its student population that is safe, supporting and caring with pastoral care being of paramount importance. Freshwater Christian College has an inclusive enrolment policy with no denominational preference applied. The College does not enrol on the basis of academic ability, as we value all students. In addition, the College population is racially and culturally diverse with 13% of the school population identified as Indigenous or Torres Strait Islanders. The College population also includes a range of Pacific Island cultures. The College values the individuality of all its students and seeks to develop their God given gifts and abilities. To enable this to occur, both Learning Support and Gifted and Talented programs are conducted in addition to a mainstream academic program. In recent years, the College has performed admirably in events such as Tournament of Minds. A new curriculum addition in 2010 is a Horticulture program with an emphasis on Aquaponics. The College now has a Kindergarten (Pre-Prep catering for children from aged 3 to 4) on site thus enabling parents to enrol their child for their complete school journey through to Year 12. The Kindergarten has an educational based program with a qualified Early Childhood Teacher.
