Community

Each year students have the opportunity to attend an annual fall retreat within the first couple weeks of the school year. This time is set aside to build community and connection, with God and other students.

As essential part of spiritual formation in the Vanguard community is our chapel services. Held once a week on Tuesdays, we gather as a community to engage in corporate worship and teaching from the Word.

Gym Drop-in: Students are welcome to organize activities like Floor Hockey, Basketball, Volleyball, and exercise classes in our gym.

Sports Teams: Throughout the year there are various opportunities for students to participate in community league team sports organized through Campus Life. (e.g soccer, basketball, volleyball)

The prayer room is open to students throughout the school year, Monday to Friday. Each morning, students and staff are invited to come together 1 hour before classes begin for early morning prayer.

All students participate in a time of community and small group discipleship (weekly or bi-weekly) led by upper year students and staff members.

Student Council is an integral part of community life at Vanguard. The Council serves the student body in three key areas: Community, Spiritual Tone and Advocacy.

Each semester, several days are set aside for students to experience spiritual refreshment in the midst of their studies. These services are designed to encourage the community to integrate Biblical knowledge into their hearts and lives.

Students who encounter difficulties in their spiritual life, academic load, social relationships, etc., are reminded that the Campus Life team is available to counsel and provide guidance to students.

In the event that a student requires professional counselling from a registered psychologist or counsellor, Vanguard College may assist with referrals and finances through the Campus Pastor's offices.
