Burdekin Christian College Nurtures Joyful Learning for Junior School Students

Burdekin Christian College ensure to incorporate the wonders and joy of childhood for their junior school students, where creativity is valued and imagination is encouraged.

Every Prep child is given the opportunity to a full developmental assessment and learning experiences to support each child’s strengths, including extension reading groups, fine motor therapy and language-rich tasks.

The school ranges from the Early Learning Centre right up to Year 12, with the Junior School being a special place for children to have the opportunity to learn in a safe and supported environment.  

The outstanding teacher/student ratios allow students’ learning to be personalised.

With every child having a different learning style, Burdekin Christian College cater for students by using learning activities that incorporate a hands-on approach, visual stimuli and real life simulations.

Burdekin Christian College held their Early Childhood Athletics Carnival this past Friday morning, with the school’s littlest learners experiencing the fun of sport within a play-based environment, assisting them in growing confidence and resilience skills.

The athletic highlight of the morning was the track races and turbo javelin, along with other tabloid games such as scooter board races and magnet fishing.

The children enjoyed their ‘under the sea’ dress-up theme, with coral, fish, sharks, and mermaids as the popular outfit choice. A Best Costume award was also presented.

The morning also included playgroup families and Kindy students from the Early Leaning Centre, making it a wonderful morning for all involved.

Mr Panfilo di Lullo cooked a delicious sausage sizzle for guests, concluding the morning’s activities on a full stomach.

BCC would like to thank the wonderful families who came along to support students, as well as congratulating the student helps and all of the children for their participation.

BCC’s Mary Poppins the Musical is set to light up the stage this October, an exciting event you won’t want to miss.
