Our Board
The College Board are a team, with a passion for Christian Education, that plan for the future development and success of the College.
The College is a member of Christian Education National (CEN), an association serving the Christian movement nationally and of the Association of Independent Schools of WA (AISWA). Board members are representatives from both the FCC Community and the wider community and each bring varying gifts and talents to their role, seeking specific expertise and support if and when required. In order to represent a broad cross-section of our Christian Community our Board is made up of no more than 50% of one Christian denomination.
The Board appoints the Principal who is charged with the day-to-day responsibilities of leadership and management of the College.
The Board focuses its agenda on matters of company policy, sound financial oversight, providing guidance to the Principal about the future direction of the College and developing plans towards achieving the Core Purpose whilst maintaining our distinctiveness.
We are grateful to those who volunteer their time to be our Board Members:
- Office Holders: Walter Ten Haaf - Board Chair, Geoff Edwards - Treasurer, Maya Abela - Secretary
- Ordinary Board Members: Michelle Chisholm, Aletta Claassen, Martin I'Anson, Jawn Looi
- Ex-officio Members: Clinton King – Principal, Karen Holmes - Business Manager (Ex-officio is a person who is a member of the Board by right of the position they hold at the College)
We encourage any parent or guardian of the College, who is a Full Member of the Association, and who is interested in contributing to serving on the Board to make enquiries at our College Office or through the Board Secretary at secretary@fcc.wa.edu.au.
Our Association
Our College Community, extends beyond the classroom and includes our community of College families.
The Foundation Christian College Association is an important part of our College community, providing a structured and meaningful way for parents and guardians to be involved in the life and direction of the College. It strengthens the partnership between families and the College by encouraging engagement, collaboration, and shared purpose in supporting students.
Every parent or guardian of a current student at FCC automatically becomes a member of the Foundation Christian College Association Inc., as either a Full Member (church attending) or Associate Member (non-church attending).The Association is represented by the College Board, who communicate with and represent the interests of the Association in guiding the strategic direction and governance of the College. Through this structure, the Association contributes to strong, transparent, and accountable governance and helps ensure the voice of families is considered at a leadership level.
All members are encouraged to have their say and participate in the life of the Association. This can include serving on the College Board, raising non-operational matters through appropriate channels, attending meetings, reviewing relevant documents, and participating in key gatherings such as the Annual General Meeting held each year. These opportunities ensure that families remain informed, engaged, and actively contributing to the ongoing development of the College.
