From the Principal...

Welcome to Investigator College, where you will find a special kind of educational experience within a caring Christian environment that assures your child the very best opportunity to excel.

Successful citizens of tomorrow will have character, confidence and a positive outlook on the world. They will strive for excellence, continually 'reinventing' themselves through a love of learning for the challenges of life. Students' awareness and understanding of Christian values and beliefs will continue to provide a strong spiritual foundation in an ever changing world.

Any parent knows it's the little things that made a difference to a child's development. At Investigator College we understand this, which is why your child will receive the pastoral care and individual attention they need - because it takes more than just 'studies' to assure a happy school life.

With our outstanding facilities including Junior and Senior Resource facilities, Information Technology suite, industry-standard Automotive Workshop, Food Technology Kitchen and an advanced Science Lab, your child will have a flying start and opportunity they deserve. All students have the opportunity to explore and develop their talents and interests in numerous activities. These activities include Students Representative Council, inter-school sport, music groups and drama productions.

Students are encouraged to develop skills and talents outside the traditional classroom. Surfing, aero-modelling, go karting, rock climbing and skateboarding are but a few of the activities open to students.

The Japanese program at Investigator College is an exciting opportunity for students to learn a foreign language and to travel and study in Japan. Students at Investigator College also host Japanese students in their own homes. We're dedicated to giving your child the very best start in life.

Investigator College has a transport network which serves a wide area of the Fleurieu Peninsula ensuring your children travel in safety and comfort for a nominal fee.

We are a learning community, committed to excellence in education while supporting parents/caregivers in providing strong Christian foundations for the lives of their children.

We seek to work together enabling the best opportunity for each child's learning experience to be happy, challenging and successful.

I invite you to consider Investigator College when making the vital choice of education for your child's future.
