Staff

Our school Board and school Leadership Team recognise that our teaching staff are our greatest asset as an organisation. We give thanks to God for our talented team for teachers and support staff.

The mission of Kerang Christian College states that the College "aims to encourage the pursuit of excellence and spiritual growth for the purpose of authentic Christian living.” The current Strategic Plan (2021 – 2025) of the College focuses on our students and our desire to achieve this mission for each and every student as they progress through our College. Our staff are working towards achieving the goals of this Strategic Plan.

The Leadership Team has considered current research and best practices when developing strategic directions for the next five years. It is our intention that this plan will assist the College in best meeting the needs of the current generation of students and assist them in preparing for multiple pathway options in a global marketplace.

Whist we are aware that there will be many challenges in the next five years, we are confident that this Strategic Plan provides us the necessary framework to ensure a rewarding, exciting and productive future at Kerang Christian College. The Bible reminds us, “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven” Ecclesiastes 3:1.
