About Brightwaters
Brightwaters Christian College is part of Christian Education Ministries (CEM), a protestant non-denominational, Christian Education organisation, whose mission is to develop each and every student to be equipped spiritually, academically, socially and physically to flourish and be a positive influence on the world around them. CEM is wholeheartedly committed to excellence in education so that students are well known, well loved, and well taught by dedicated, trained, Christian staff.
