Cutting Edge Facilities
Spread across 33 hectares of natural Australian bushland, JPC is an iconic landmark in Daisy Hill, just south of the Brisbane CBD.
With landscaped gardens and wireless networked contemporary buildings, purpose-built to meet the needs of our students and the wider College community, every student feels very comfortable within our inclusive learning community.
Even though our overall campus is large, it is divided into smaller schools with specific areas for different year levels.
Our Primary School children play and learn separately from the Secondary School students and have their own distinct areas for socialising. These specific areas, overseen by a core group of teachers, provide our students with a secure and more personal experience at each stage of their educational journey.

Computers and Technology
| Information Communication Technology (ICT) supports the curriculum, as technology is completely integrated into our teaching and learning processes to support students. Our technology is used to assist in developing student creativity, logical and lateral thinking, to assist with research, and to develop digital and information literacy skills.
Throughout the College, wireless connectivity and a range of printers support the notebook program while technological resources including electronic whiteboards and data projectors are used in every classroom.
