A Christian education offers much more than just academic and sporting excellence. Pastoral Care is an integral part of the school program at GCC with a focus on the spiritual, emotional, social and physical well-being of every student.
Effective Pastoral Care requires more than simply having a Chaplain on staff. At GCC, the support of our entire student body requires the willing participation of every staff member as they prayerfully model and teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ on a daily basis.
For students who find they are struggling with life issues, our staff provide help, empathy, guidance and support. In co-operation with parents and guardians, students are afforded every assistance with referral to specialised counselling support when needed.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to contact us at any time and should never allow themselves to feel disengaged from this crucial network of support.
All GCC staff members are available to our College families and are happy to listen and help in any way they can to ensure every student achieves their full potential as they study at GCC.
This year we are delighted to introduce to you our new College Chaplain, Mrs Denise Hansell. Any concerns relating particularly to Pastoral Care can be directed to Denise.Hansell@gulfcc.qld.edu.au.
