They say that the community is what makes a place special and gives it ‘heart’. This could be no more true than at Nambour Christian College, where our community is tremendously supported by selfless acts of kindness and support from our generous volunteers. Whether it’s a parent, a grandparent, a family member or a friend, volunteers significantly contribute to the success of NCC and provide our students with so much more than just an education.
