GOLD CREEK SCHOOL

Established in 1998, Gold Creek is a unique school in the suburb of
Nicholls in the ACT. It comprises two sites and three sub-schools. Each
sub-school is lead by a deputy principal. The primary site caters for primary
age children from preschool to Year 5 and is part of the ACT’s only joint
facility campus, sharing facilities/resources with Holy Spirit Catholic Primary
School. Hall and Nicholls Preschools are part of Gold Creek School and students
may access Hall Preschool from three years of age. The senior site has a Middle
School program for Years 6 to 8 and a Senior School program for Years 9 and 10.
These two programs cater for the pastoral care needs of adolescents and ensure
academic rigour at the same time. The senior site caters for all students who
live in the region of Gungahlin.

School features include the Gold Program which caters for the needs
of gifted and talented students from Kindergarten to Year 10; opportunities for
instrumental music tuition; bands and ensembles; strong focus on pastoral care
