Freshwater Christian Kindergarten

BUSH KINDY PROGRAM | Our little adventurers have been having a fantastic time at Bush Kindy!

Twice a week throughout Terms 2 and 3, our Kindy classes venture down to the creek for our Bush Kindy sessions, which provide a wonderful opportunity for children to explore, discover, and learn in nature.

BUSH KINDY | Our 2026 Bush Kindy Program kicks off in a few weeks, and the children are buzzing with excitement to take their learning and play into nature! This week, they began preparations by practising how to safely walk to our lower fields.

We look forward to moving the classroom outdoors for this very popular program!

HE IS RISEN!

Today we celebrate the hope, joy, and new life found in the resurrection of Christ. What began in sacrifice is fulfilled in victory.

May our community have a blessed and joyful Easter Sunday.

GOOD FRIDAY | Today, we pause to reflect on the profound significance of Good Friday - a day defined by sacrifice, love, and grace.

As a college community, we remember the ultimate act of compassion shown through Christ’s sacrifice and the enduring hope it offers to us all.

COLOUR FOR COMPASSION | WE DID IT!

We’re thrilled to announce that our Colour for Compassion fundraiser has officially hit its $10,000 target! This is an incredible achievement, made possible by the overwhelming generosity of our school community.

Because of your support, we are able to provide:

60 Chickens
20 Goats
50 Bibles
3 Cows
15 Clean water systems
A complete toilet block for a community in need

To celebrate this milestone, our Principal, Mr. Scott, will be joining our student captains, teachers, and Deputy Principal on the official sliming list!

Parents, you are invited to join the fun:

When: Thursday, April 2nd (1.45pm Secondary, 2.10pm Primary & Kindy)
Where: The Upper Oval
What: A fun (and very messy!) afternoon to finish off Term 1!

Student Reminder: Don’t forget to bring a white shirt next Thursday to make the most of the colour fun!

It’s not too late to give. While we’ve hit our goal, donations remain open until April 2nd. Every extra dollar raised will continue to support vulnerable communities through Compassion Australia. https://www.trybooking.com/au/donate/colourforcompassion

KINDY | This week, our Kindy children were thrilled to host some furry and scaly visitors from Roaming Wild! The children got up close with some interesting creatures, including a blue-tongued lizard, turtle, frog, squirrel gliders, and even a baby crocodile. It has been wonderful to see their curiosity ignite - a perfect lead-in to our Bush Kindy outdoor learning program starting in Term 2, where we can’t wait to take our classroom outdoors and discover even more about our natural environment!

COLOUR RUN 2026 | COLOUR FOR COMPASSION | Mark your calendars for 2 April! Our annual Colour Run is back and this year, it’s all about Colour for Compassion.

From Kindy to Year 12, we’re rallying together to support the life-changing work of Compassion Australia, helping to release children from poverty in Jesus’ name.

Every dollar raised will make a meaningful impact.

The stakes? The more we raise, the messier it gets!
We’ve locked in some “Messy Milestones” - and if we reach our target, our teachers and leadership team are officially getting SLIMED.

FCC KINDY | Our youngest learners have had a fantastic start to the year, even engaging in our specialist program.

Each Wednesday, Mrs Evans visits to fill the rooms with music, movement and fun, building essential skills for early learning.

Our classes also love their weekly “big school” adventure to the library, where they enjoy hearing stories and taking part in special activities with our Head of Primary, Dr Greenlees.

We love these cross-campus connections that bring our College community together.
