Christian Studies

Calrossy believes that to be Christian is a way of life based on a personal response to the call of Jesus Christ on our lives. It means understanding the reason for the life, death and resurrection of Jesus and making a conscious decision to make him a part of one's life.

Christian Studies is taught by a team of teachers all of whom are active members of local churches. It encourages students to explore their own beliefs and those of others and to be able to critically evaluate statements about God.

The program focuses on two areas;

Understanding the love of God seen in the life of Christ and told in the bible story
and
Understanding the call to care for those in need wherever we find them.

As well as exciting classroom activities, students have an opportunity to explore this relationship with Christ at a greater depth at many places in the school program. Groups that meet at lunchtime for prayer and encouragement, planning and running weekend children's missions and attending Christian music festivals are all part of the program offered at Calrossy.

As well, students are encouraged to make use of opportunities such as the Scripture Union study camp, local youth groups.
