Rehoboth Christian College
Résumé
Rehoboth Christian College is a dual-campus independent trans-denominational Protestant co-educational primary and secondary day school, located in the south-eastern corridor of Perth, Western Australia. The college comprises a Year K to Year 6 campus in the suburb of Wilson, and a Year K to Year 12 campus in the suburb of Kenwick. The college currently enrols some 650 students across its two campuses.
Rehoboth pioneered the establishment in Western Australia of a parent-directed style of school governance and a distinctive approach to curriculum which have since been adopted by a number of other schools. Rehoboth is affiliated with Christian Education National and with the Association of Independent Schools of Western Australia.
Rehoboth Christian College was formerly called Rehoboth Christian School and for many years using separate designations, was called Rehoboth Christian Primary School and Rehoboth Christian High School.
Rehoboth is part of a Christian school movement having its origins in Europe and brought to Australia by post-World War II migrants. Its distinctive parent-governance model was innovative in an era when most Christian schools were run by churches. It was established by an association of parents, The Association for Christian Education (Perth) Inc., which was established in 1959, and was the first school of its type in Western Australia when it opened its doors in 1966. Its main distinctive by comparison with the church-operated schools was an intent to relate Christian belief to all areas of the curriculum. At the same time, teaching was focused on the mainstream curriculum, and the school consciously avoided packaged curriculum materials such as Accelerated Christian Education. The role of the parent was paramount, both in school governance and in taking final responsibility for the education of the child, of which schooling was considered only a part.
The college commenced as a primary school only, and it was another 11 years before, in 1977, a secondary campus was established in temporary premises at Kensington.
