Located in one of Perth's youngest and fastest growing communities, Ellenbrook Christian College offers a Kindergarten to Year 12 education.

Our Values:
Character
Commitment
Community

The College has a well-developed, biblically grounded and Christ-centred education philosophy, built on the pillars of Character, Commitment and Community. These values are woven into every aspect of our educational offering. They are on display in our classrooms, in how we greet you in reception, in how we talk to one another and in how we nurture and support our students. They are in everything we do, and this all stems from our faith.

We believe and practice that all children and young people have the right to feel and be safe. This is why Ellenbrook Christian College aligns with the National Child Safe Principles.
We are a Christian community dedicated to sharing God’s love for the world through an exceptional educational experience. We value the uniqueness of every child and understand the crucial place educators have in assisting them to reach their full potential.

Arts

ELL OLIVER 01
The Arts at Ellenbrook Christian College provides active learning in a vast array of visual and performing environments.

Students are equipped to develop and achieve excellence in innovation, design, performance and production. Our highly experienced specialists will nurture and inspire students to achieve excellence in their creative field.

Ellenbrook Christian College offers a unique emphasis on providing aesthetic experiences within the Arts. An aesthetic experience is one in which senses are operating at their peak; the mind is resonating with the excitement of the experience; feeling fully alive. Students are given powerful learning opportunities that encourage inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, making mistakes and having fun.

Experiential Learning

 
At Ellenbrook Christian College, students are provided with the opportunity to learn through unique experiences outside of the classroom.

It is through these experiences that students develop a repertoire of skills including cooperation, communication, teamwork and resilience.

Through camps and mission trips, we take school to the road and give students the experience of learning about themselves, the world around them and the needs of others. All of the camps undertaken by our students are beneficial to the growth of each student as each camp has been designed to challenge each individual spiritually, emotionally and socially.

The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award is new to Ellenbrook Christian College for 2022. The Award  is a development program that encourages young people between the ages of 14 to 24 to explore their full potential and find their purpose, passion and place in the world.

In 2022, all Year 9 students have been invited to participate in the Award at the Bronze level, and 20 students have taken up the challenge and begun logging their journey. We are excited to see them embrace the program and show enthusiasm for learning in the areas that they have chosen. Many are on track to complete their Bronze level by the end of the year and are keen to work towards their Gold level by the time they graduate.

The Award is separated into three levels; bronze, silver and gold.  Since the Award’s launch nearly 60 years ago, it has inspired more than eight million young people to transform their lives. By creating opportunities for young people to develop skills, get physically active, give service and experience adventure, the Award can play a critical role in their development outside the classroom. It also allows their achievement to be consistently recognised worldwide, giving young people unique international accreditation of their experiences.

If your child is interested in taking part in this amazing opportunity, please get in touch by emailing Kerry Martin (kerry.martin@ellenbrook.wa.edu.au) or contacting the College directly.

"On behalf of Ellenbrook Christian College, we would like to extend a warm welcome to you.

As a parent, there are so many factors that influence our choice of school; Excellent teaching and learning programs, strong well-structured pastoral care and extensive extra-curricular offerings. At Ellenbrook Christian College we offer all this, but we strive to go much further.

We recognise that each child is an individual who brings their talents and passions to the school community. We seek to develop those talents and inspire our students to foster a love for learning and personal growth. Through focusing on getting to know our students, we develop an understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, and we work to provide pathways designed to develop their particular talents.

Driven by Christian values, we seek to develop the character of our students, providing a supportive environment to foster personal development, preparing to emerge into the world equipped to contribute according to their talents. We are intentional about developing the whole person through our Salt and Light philosophy. As with our academic program, our pastoral care and personal development approaches are sequential, building on the previously acquired skills.

The success of our vision hinges upon our strong and demonstrable partnerships with parents, working in unity. Ellenbrook is a lively, vibrant community and the school is committed to fostering strong parent engagement.

Thank you for considering Ellenbrook Christian College, we would love the opportunity to walk this journey with you.”
