Meet our College Council

The Prince of Peace Lutheran College is owned and operated by the Lutheran Church of Australia Queensland District (LCAQD), who delegate authority to the Prince of Peace College Council to oversee the operations of the College.

With members that are appointed to the College Council by the Church, the Council oversees the running of the College. Our Council members come from a variety of backgrounds including education, finance, theology, law and business, and some members are current or past parents. The Council meets monthly with the Head of College and other members of the Leadership Team to set strategic direction and policy.

Enquiries should be directed to the Chairman at collegechair@princeofpeace.qld.edu.au or Secretary at councilsecretary@princeofpeace.qld.edu.au.

Alternatively, the PA to the Head of College, Mrs Karen Osborne, can be contacted on 07 3872 5600 during office hours.
