Teachers in other subject areas may also begin each class period with prayer or spiritual thought, and encourage student input. Weekly, the student body gathers for a chapel service at their neighbouring church (Mt Gravatt Seventh-Day Adventist Church) with special guests from time to time and the time periods (of the chapel service) ranging anywhere between 45 minutes to 1:30 hours.

The College offers students access to touch football, basketball, rugby (league and/or union), netball, Futsal (soccer) and volleyball.
