Brauer College is located in Warrnambool City, located on the Great South West Coast of Victoria and is a vibrant and growing city with a population of approximately 39,000.
Warrnambool has something for everyone.
The College has spacious and attractive grounds, which provide a safe and secure environment for the facilities that support the extensive range of curricular and co-curricular programs offered across the two campuses, Warrnambool and our Grampian outdoor education centre at Dunkeld.
The College provides an innovative Year 7 curriculum program with an enhancement program to cater for students with a desire to learn and be challenged.
A vertical curriculum from Year 8 has enabled students to accelerate in areas which they are strong, consolidate in areas where they are less able and to specialize in areas which they have a particular interest.
There is a strong focus on student leadership and students lead activities in the College and student achievements are regularly celebrated.
Students have an extensive co-curricular program to engage them, including a highly acclaimed Music program, an extensive array of sporting academies, public speaking, and leadership opportunities.
Student support is provided through a strong and positive pastoral care program, Disability and Inclusion team, and a student Wellbeing team.
This support is among the many social and emotional development programs implemented to ensure that students remain resilient, happy individuals who feel connected to their school and community.
