We believe that the world and its people are the created handiwork of God, and we are called to be His agents of change in our broken world.
The study of civics, economics, geography, and history at London Christian High provides students with a variety of cultural perspectives and challenges them to demonstrate a Christ-like response to the world around them.
Students studying civics learn to express empathy for differing political viewpoints in a way that contributes to the well-being of all as Canadian citizens. Economics students learn about how businesses drive government policy, international trade, and third-world development while considering God’s call for sustainable and cultural development.
In geography, students learn how to apply the concepts of Biblical stewardship and sustainable development while reducing our ecological footprints when it comes to our use of natural resources by studying issues in Canada and around the globe. In history, students experience and research the people and key historical developments that have moulded our world today to better understand their role in the renewal of this broken world. In all of this, we hope to nurture civic leaders who have both knowledge and heart.
