Freshwater Life

Freshwater Friends

Freshwater Christian College has a vibrant parent community. As a private independent Christian school in Cairns, we are passionate about creating and enhancing our community and actively promote and encourage parent involvement at all levels. There are many ways for parents and guardians to get involved in the life of the College.

Parent Ambassadors

The Parent Class Ambassadors group is a collective of parents and guardians who have a passion and deep commitment to further strengthen the community we enjoy together. Everyone is welcome to join us. For more details, please enquire today at the College Reception.

Freshwater Parent Coffee Mornings and Workshops

Throughout the year, our parents are invited to join us at our ‘Freshwater Parent Coffee Mornings and/or Workshops’. Hosted by our Parent Ambassadors, these mornings give parents and available staff the opportunity to get to know each other, enjoy a complimentary coffee and hear from our leadership team.

Volunteer in Class

Parents are welcome to join in on class activities as well as camps and excursions. Contact your class teacher or Primary/Secondary office to find out more.

Relocating to Cairns?

The Cairns region is where the Reef meets the rainforest, and has what many consider to be a near-perfect climate, balmy yet warm all year-round. Near the heart of the City, you will find Freshwater, a residential suburb of Cairns with excellent access to the CBD, the Airport and northern beaches. Locals consider the area one of the premier suburbs of the City, featuring some of the best housing in the region. It is also home to Freshwater Christian College, the highest-performing school in Far North Queensland. There are many parks, restaurants and cafes to choose from and despite its central location, Freshwater is surprisingly tranquil.
