“Deciding about your child's educational future is one of the most important decisions parents need to make. You need to choose a school that works in partnership with your own personal beliefs and values in raising your child.”Mr Shane Jurecky Principal
I would like to extend a warm welcome to you and your family.
I trust that the information you discover by navigating our website will provide you with an insight into our college and enable you to determine ways that we, as a learning-centered community can contribute to the educational, social, emotional, and developmental growth of your child.
Peace Lutheran College is a place of Christian faith and excellence in learning where people are inspired, cared for, and equipped to be active contributors to society. We strive for every person to achieve their personal excellence every day – to be better today than they were yesterday, in all aspects of life.
We do this by being:
- learning-centered – focusing on the holistic needs of each student
- spiritually sensitive – understanding that life has a spiritual dimension
- environmentally aware – we are called to care for the world we live in.
We do this:
- with a conscience – striving for personal integrity in all circumstances
- with a heart – focusing on our relationships with one another and caring for those in need
- with a heritage – celebrating the diversity of our personal and national backgrounds.
We believe every student is a special gift from God each with unique gifts, skills, and talents, which when nurtured enable them to become active citizens beyond our college. Every child is treated with care, dignity, and respect and encouraged to have control over their learning. Each is challenged to discover, develop, and use their gifts and abilities for personal growth and service to others. We hope that the enriching and fulfilling opportunities experienced in our community stay with students for life.
Peace Lutheran College is widely regarded as a caring school. We place a high priority on pastoral care. Our staff works hard at developing nurturing relationships with students because encouraging and affirming relationships lie at the heart of effective learning.
I firmly believe Peace Lutheran College is a school community where our children can grow and develop, knowing we are grounded in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and surrounded by His love.
I look forward to welcoming you to Peace.
