College Connection

There is much research about what makes a good school. School quality depends on many characteristics, not all easily measurable and not all equally important to all families.

When you send your child to Heatherton Christian College what sort of education do they actually receive? What sort of structures do we have in place to ensure that your child thrives? How important is the fact that they have the opportunity to explore the big questions of life and find the answers in God?

Are you one of the 9 million people who have looked at the ‘My School’ website and what do the results actually show? Can I encourage you to make an appointment to speak with Jason Burgess or Damian Higgins if you missed out on our recent Information Evening, and find out the answers to some of these very important questions?

  1. Does HCC have a proven academic record? 
  2. Will my child perform as well academically at HCC
    compared to a more prestigious private school?
     
  3. Are small class sizes at HCC a hindrance? 
  4. Will my child be offered a wide range of subjects at VCE? 
  5. How did the VCE students of 2009 perform? 


Quote of the week

...“I was wrong”. These may be the three hardest words of all to say. The parent who never says them will pay a high price in respect. Anyone who was raised by a ‘never wrong’ mother or father can attest to that. A proud rigidity did not make that parent seem taller, only smaller. An unwillingness to admit mistakes or apologize breeds resentment in a child, not respect. Yet tragically, the wounded sons and daughters of invulnerable parents tend to become ‘never wrong’ parents themselves.”

Strategies for saying "I was wrong, I'm sorry"...
