Providing Seamless Education in Hervey Bay

2010 scholarship program - now open

Fraser Coast Anglican College is a co-educational day school from Kindergarten through to Year 12. Our school is structured into Junior (K – 6), Middle (7 – 9) and Senior Schools (10 – 12). The colourful and exciting Koala Kindy is very popular and an outstanding facility. We also offer both short term and long term programs, in our International Department , for students from overseas who wish to study in Australia. Our ROOS Care provides Before and After Hours School Care.

The College is located on Doolong South Road, Hervey Bay, Australia, on 64 acres of natural bush land, approximately five minutes drive from the beautiful Hervey Bay beaches.

Students attending the College are able to choose from a wide range of subjects. We have a broad based curriculum using the Key Learning Areas and the QSA curriculum. Class sizes at the College are generally small which enables all students to readily gain access to teaching staff. After hours tutorials are offered for students wishing to improve or consolidate their learning.

The College has an academic focus, high standards and we enjoy a good reputation for our academic performances. Our Year 12 results are generally outstanding. Over recent years a number of our students have received an OP 1, with about 33% of our students receiving an OP score of 1 to 7 (the State average was 26.5%).

The use of Technology is clearly a vital component in equipping students to meet the challenges of the future. At FCAC the Technology Precinct provides outstanding computer access while the integration of technology across the curriculum is a major focus of our efforts in providing the very best education we can.

Students, Parents / Guardians and Teachers are able to access our web based information and learning portals via Online@FCAC.

Co-curricular Programs

We have outstanding programs in Music and the Arts and excellent achievements and participation in Sports. These are the corner stones of any successful educational establishment. Students at FCAC are provided with a large range of opportunities to involve themselves in a variety of co-curricular activities. Our sporting program encompasses a number of different sports and many students have gone on to represent the region and State. Our cultural program includes a wide range of musical experiences which incorporates individual lessons and performances as well as involvement in ensembles and bands, while students can also be involved in drama, debating, public speaking and visual arts.

Student Welfare

Our pastoral care program at FCAC is centred on the safety, security and happiness of the individual child. The classroom teacher is at the heart of the pastoral care program in Junior and Middle School. Here, nurturing relationships are developed and fostered in a caring atmosphere within the classroom. In Senior School our Heads of House oversee the pastoral care of students who are a member of a House. Each House consists of individual year groups whose tutor is the day to day contact point. The College also has a fulltime Guidance Counselor and a Chaplain.

Our Outdoor Education program is an important complement in our pastoral care. The program is run by the Director of Outdoor Education and is a sequential, developmental program in which every child participates. The annual camps involving a range of activities, challenges and adventures are a consistent highlight of the student’s year.

A comprehensive student leadership program is in place. Our students are also involved in a range of service activities both locally and overseas and we pride ourselves on the service culture that has developed over the years.
