College Overview

Founded in 1987, Overnewton Anglican Community College is a co-educational Preparatory to Year 12 College
catering for 2,100 students across two campuses, located in Taylors Lakes and Keilor. Overnewton strives to be an
inclusive learning community, providing a respectful environment where all students can aspire to excellence in a
broad range of curricular and co-curricular programs. We value our Christian foundation, and the importance of
parents as active members of our College, working in partnership to prepare our students to be mentally, physically
and spiritually ready for life.

All staff participate fully in the life of Overnewton, including being supportive of our Christian ethos and contributing
to the breadth and depth of our student and staff programs. Joining Overnewton as an employee means being
part of a motivated, caring and professional community, innately believing that students are at the centre of all
that we do. The College is a nurturing, passionate and inspiring environment where our engaging programs,
progressive pedagogy and excellent pastoral structures ensure that every child and young person can feel a sense
of connectedness, purpose and pride.

Four schools, two campuses, one college
The College is organised into four sub-schools;
Canowindra Campus (Taylors Lakes) Yirramboi Campus (Keilor)
Junior School (Prep - Year 4) Middle School (Years 5 - 8)
Year 9 Senior School (Years 10 - 12)

Each School has its own Head of School and leadership team, and is functionally self-contained. This structure
offers the intimacy of a small-school community, whilst being supported by our large campus facilities and
resources.

Proudly Anglican
Our Christian foundation informs and
strengthens our contemporary practice and
Anglican identity. The College has a Chaplain
and every child attends Chapel regularly.
Christian festivals are celebrated, Christian
values are promoted and active faith is
encouraged. Religious Studies is taught from
Preparatory to Year 11. We are an open and
safe place for children and staff of all faiths,
and no faith, and welcome their contribution
to our spiritual life.

Strong academic outcomes

Parental involvement
Recognising that education is a partnership, the College seeks
high parental engagement and each family currently
contributes 12 hours of service to the College per term. There
are many parent working groups helping in areas such as
classroom assistance, gardening, administrative support,
catering, canteens and the annual fair. There are also regular
working bees at each campus. The parental involvement is a
key to the success of a student's experience in the College.
Students attend the College knowing they have the complete
support and commitment of their parents behind them.
