Trinity Lutheran College offers families and their children 11 outstanding years of schooling from Prep through to Year 10. We deliver outstanding academic outcomes from a young age, are a middle school of choice in Mildura, and provide a highly-personalised, academic learning environment. Our fees are highly affordable with low entry costs, conservative increases and family discounts.
The College has separate zones for Prep – Year 2, Years 3 – 6 and the Secondary years with age appropriate facilities, specialist teachers, and an extensive and enriching curriculum. As a result, children have a strong sense of belonging, are happy, and flourish in their learning and enjoyment of school life.
Having staff that are incredible teachers requires a great environment in which to work – a place where staff are cared for and share common values of being hard-working, wanting to continue their own professional development and being able to let their caring natures come to light.
What sets our staff body apart is:
A Child-centred Approach
Our staff have a deep desire to meet and know each child and their parents BEFORE they start at TLC. Teachers continue to prioritise their relationships with students to ensure the right environment for positive learning experiences. Guided by the understanding of emotional intelligence, our teachers tune into how students are feeling, what they are saying and their manner, as well as what behaviours and actions they are witnessing to gain an understanding of the whole child.
Start Right Program
At the beginning of a new school year each class will focus on a Start Right approach which enables teachers and their students to get to know each other and set the foundation for a positive school year. With their students, teachers participate in a diverse range of activities to build positive relationships, understand our values in practice, establish daily routines and the expectation for a beneficial learning environment.
A Christ-centred Approach
TLC affirms the worth and dignity of all individuals in its community. At TLC we have passionate Christian staff who model our Christian values in how we treat one another, the examples we set and how we encourage our students to also grow in their ‘Christ-like’ behaviours. Our daily actions of both staff and students brings to the fore our Nurture the Faith, Grow in Knowledge, and Act with Honour motto.
Valuing Community Policy
We are committed to enabling each member of our community to reach their potential, and to uphold each other in caring, supportive encouraging and forgiving relationships. At Trinity Lutheran College we have a zero tolerance for child abuse and are committed to acting in children’s best interests and keeping them safe from harm.
Communication
Our staff value the partnership with parents throughout their children’s education journey. Parents are given regular feedback from staff about their child’s schooling that is shared in a variety of ways including; academic reports, interviews, student led conferences, class/year level communication and informal updates.
Classroom support
We have a team of Learning Assistants who support teachers within each year level to provide the best level of support possible to all students and their individual learning needs.
We would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we are meeting, the Latji Latji people, and pay our respects to Elders both past, present and future. We also acknowledge First Nations staff, students and families who are a part of our College community.
