About Covenant College

In 2025, we moved into a brand-new onsite Kindergarten, complete with engaging outdoor spaces. Covenant College Kindergarten offers funded programs in both three-year-old and four-year-old programs.

Nestled in a growth area in Bell Post Hill, Geelong, Victoria, with a rich heritage spanning over 40 years, our College has nurtured generations of students, fostering not only academic achievement but also a profound sense of faith and purpose.

At Covenant College, we believe in cultivating an environment where every staff member is valued, empowered, and inspired to nurture in each child a passion for learning and an uncompromising desire to live according to God's word.

Covenant College seeks to be a leading provider in Christian education and aims to see the following achieved:

  • An integration of Christian faith and character in all student learning.

  • Excellence in Christian education from a Christian Biblical worldview.

  • A Christian education community where every person is valued and nurtured in their faith and healthy relationships are promoted.

  • A culture where the protection of children is embedded and fostered by the whole school community.

  • Enhanced partnerships between parents, students, and staff, strengthening the learning process.

  • The provision of high-quality facilities and resources.

  • A culture of continued improvement, professional development and pastoral support among staff and the school community.
  • Effective communication with parents and the wider community.

Here is what some of our staff have to say about what it means to be a Covenant College employee:

"I enjoy the freedom to express our Christian faith. I further enjoy encouraging students to express their lives from a biblical perspective."

"I am able to serve our community. I am challenged to be more like Jesus and I like working with students to help them reach their potential."
