Course Info
Year 11 and 12 are some of the most significant years of your schooling life.
Questions about future and direction are constantly being asked. Experimentation due to new found freedoms also adds to the load. Keeping Christ at the forefront of your life through all this can be extremely difficult.

C3 is a chance to connect with other students from different high schools as a support and encouragement as you both journey through God’s word and see how it can apply to your life.
C3 uses a very hands on and practical approach to study and has the benefit of being recognised as in the VET system.
The goal of C3 is to impact three areas of your life:
We seek to build your beliefs, to strengthen your character and to equip you for ministry.
We recognise that ultimately we are dependent on God’s Spirit to grow your life in these areas.
We desire to be God’s tools in developing you in belief, character and ministry, so that you may become more like the Lord Jesus Christ.
