24.01.2022 The final week of school holds many special memories for our Year 12s, including two milestone events of the Senior calendar. At the Elisha Afternoon, our graduating students invite family, friends and mentors to pray with them as they prepare to leave school and embark on a new part of their journey. Our Tribute Afternoon is an opportunity for staff to pay tribute to each graduating student in front of their parents and carers. These events have helped remind us, as staff, of the privilege that it is to work with such quality young people and their parents.

24.01.2022 We've loved seeing how our Primary students have engaged with offsite learning.

24.01.2022 Even though our Primary cross country was postponed til next semester, our students were still able to participate in fundraising for Run4Biblez. Together, we were able to raise over $1800, which has been able to go towards the purchasing of approximately 266 Bible packs for students in South African Public Schools.

23.01.2022 This semester, a number of our Year 11 & 12 students have engaged in Externally Delivered Electives (EDE) through the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) and Central Queensland University (CQU). Congratulations to all our students who successfully completed an accelerated university subject in Semester One. Special mention goes to our Girls School Captain Rebecca, who achieved a High Distinction in Environmental Studies through the USQ Head Start Program.

22.01.2022 It's great to be back together for the last term of the year!

22.01.2022 Well done to our four teams who competed at the Queensland Schools Cup Volleyball competition on the Gold Coast over the weekend. We’re proud of their efforts and sportsmanship.

20.01.2022 Vocation is where your deep gladness meets the world’s deep hunger. Frederick Buechner - Work Experience provides students with a great opportunity to explore possible vocations. Already this year students have participated in fields including diesel mechanics, aviation, graphic design, secondary education, business retail, medicine, electrical distribution and carpentry. Thanks to our Careers Officer, Mr Reinbott, for his help in organising these placements.

18.01.2022 Congratulations to 2014 College graduate Courtney Major for her recent success at the Top100 Future Leaders Competition.

11.01.2022 It was fantastic to finish our schooling year celebrating the achievements of so many of our students across the College.

Well done to all our students who have worked hard and persevered through what has definitely been a challenging year.

11.01.2022 Congratulations to Noah (Year 12) who was selected in the Senior Men’s National Premier League Team of the Week, after his starting debut in the National Premier League QLD Competition on the weekend. Well done Noah!

11.01.2022 This morning, our Year 12 students participated in the very first TCC Time Capsule Ceremony. The capsule was buried in 2015, and contained items contributed by our students when they were in Year 7, including letters and photos. This was a special time for our 2020 graduating students to reflect on their journey through secondary school, and all the moments they’ve experienced together.

10.01.2022 Thanks to C&K Highfields and District Kindergarten for the wonderful work that you do. Our students enjoyed using their creative drama skills to bring some festive joy.

10.01.2022 Throughout this year, our Secondary Visual Art students have applied their creativity and skill to produce excellent artworks that reflect Truth, Beauty and Goodness. We had an opportunity to celebrate our students’ hard work at our Visual Art Showcase on Wednesday night. Thank you to all who attended and supported the efforts of our students and staff. Special thanks to Mr Lucas for not only organising this event, but for also encouraging students in their creative pursuits.

Lest we forget.

08.01.2022 Congratulations to the cast, band and crew who were involved in our 2020 production of ‘The Tempest’. What a fantastic 3 nights!

07.01.2022 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others (Philippians 2:4). We love to see our students embracing this mandate. Service Days are one such opportunity for Secondary students. Monday and Tuesday were a flurry of others-focused activity which saw students cheerfully cooking, cleaning, weed-clearing, planting, car-washing, painting, craft-making and sharing the true meaning of Christmas. It’s also been wonderful to hear such positive feedback from the community organisations our students were able to assist.

07.01.2022 We are thankful that we can use our resources and skills to assist others who are doing it tough at the moment. Thank you to Base Services for distributing these meals, and for the amazing work you do in the community.

07.01.2022 Knights, princesses and beanstalks were all seen around the Primary School today we even spotted a Billy Goat Gruff! Our Year 1 students have been reading and learning about fairytales throughout this term, and had so much fun dressing up as their favourite character today.

01.01.2022 At the end of Term 2, we farewelled Year 9 exchange student, Ylonca, who joined us from The Netherlands through the World Educations Program Australia (WEP). During her time at TCC, Ylonca discovered the game of Oz-Tag, and loved it so much that she wanted to share it with her friends in Holland, so as a parting gift, we presented her with her very own Oz-Tag ball. We wish you all the best for the future, Ylonca!

01.01.2022 Welcome back to all of our students! Today was full of excitement as we celebrated being together again.

01.01.2022 Feeling grateful and not expressing it is like wrapping a gift and not giving it to someone William Arthur Ward - There is so much we can be thankful for.

01.01.2022 Happy National Day of Thanks! We pray that today would be an opportunity to not only express gratitude, but to reflect on how we can continually live a life of thankfulness. Here are some of things our community is thankful for.
