The Grace Way

Grace Lutheran College is, by the grace of God, a Christian community. It aims to continue the preparation of young people for a life of faith and service so that God will be glorified in the world.

Grace Lutheran College is one College with two campuses, Rothwell and Caboolture, owned and operated by the Lutheran Church of Australia, Queensland District. A College Council appointed by the Church provides governance, strategic direction and policy for the College.

Grace Lutheran College is a community-based, co-educational secondary school, open to all families who are willing to support our ethos, without discrimination as to class, race or belief. We aim to be inclusive of the diverse range of people who call Australia home.

We have a strong relationship with our partner primary schools: St Paul's Lutheran Primary School, Caboolture; Living Faith Lutheran Primary School, Murrumba Downs; and Grace Lutheran Primary School, Clontarf.

Students travel to Grace Lutheran College from many areas in North Brisbane, Caboolture, Bribie Island and surrounds, many using our extensive College owned bus services.

We encourage everyone in our community to learn and serve according to ‘The Grace Way’.

GRIT

GRIT means perseverance with all tasks from the mundane to the very difficult. When we practice grit we attempt new challenges and complete all tasks to the highest possible standard.

We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.
Romans 5:3-5

GROWTH

GROWTH means having a growth mindset, a passion for learning and improving oneself. When we practice a growth mindset we confidently try to improve, and tackle new challenges.

Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still; teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.
Proverbs 9:9

GRACE

GRACE means undeserved generosity, first received from god, then freely given to others. When we practice grace we hon-our and accept others.

God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.
Ephesians 2:8-9
