Welcome to OxleyWelcome to Oxley Christian College Open Day. It is a pleasure to meet you, whether this is your first visit, or if you are already involved with the College in some way. Established in 1979, Oxley is a multi-denominational Christian College committed to excellence in learning and teaching from the Early Years through to Year 12. We provide quality education involving rigorous academic and exciting co-curricular programs. An Oxley education nurtures Christian character and wellbeing in students, so that graduates have the skills and humility to act with integrity, compassion and courage as they engage with their communities. Our talented staff are focused on providing an enjoyable, diverse and rounded education for students who are challenged to be, and to contribute, their very best. We invite you to consider joining our vibrant and supportive educational community. Please collect an Information Pack from the main Reception area or outside the Resource Centre. The College Principal, Dr Douglas Peck, will be speaking in the Broadley Performing Arts Centre Auditorium at 11.30am. The Principal’s Address will be followed by an opportunity for prospective families to join a tour group to visit classrooms and demonstration lessons and other areas of the College. Tours will leave from the Broadley Performing Arts Centre foyer. We trust you enjoy the various exhibitions, demonstrations and performances; a taste of the rich educational experiences at Oxley. Staff and students will be delighted to chat with you. Complimentary refreshments are available throughout the day in the Staff Room. Lunch may also be purchased from the various food stalls or the Canteen. Every completed entry in our Open Day competition will go in the draw for an opportunity to win a Samsung Galaxy Tablet. Collect all seven tokens from designated points within the College and attach them to the enclosed entry form. Place completed forms in the box located in the main Reception area. Entry is limited to one per family. We hope you enjoy the day!
