Our Vision and Mission
Our Vision
As lifelong learners, we are present in faith and united in Christ. We serve with respect, humility, and compassion, acting with courage today and into the future.
Our Mission
We are called to abide in Christ, connected and supported as people of the ‘vine’ growing into the best version of ourselves in faith, learning, and community.
Our Motto
Our motto is “Abide in Christ”. It calls each member of the school community to remain close to Christ by being present, while displaying humility, courage and serving others.
Our School Values/Actions
Presence: Where all people we encounter are given our respect and fullest attention, where we acknowledge and are conscious of the presence of God in our everyday lives, and where we contribute to making Jesus known and loved throughout the world by our words and actions.
Humility: Where we recognise that our gifts and talents come from God, where we always express gratitude and appreciation for all that we have, and where we walk gently on the earth as humble stewards of God’s creation.
Courage: Where we always stand up for what is right and just, where we bravely pursue our goals and aspirations, and where we embrace challenges with hope and confidence.
Service: Where we always include those on the margins, where we embrace a generosity of spirit that considers the needs of others before our own, and where we commit to building up the common good and creating safe and supportive environments.
Our Crest
We are bearing fruit as branches of Christ’s vine. The symbolism in the lower section of the crest calls the school community to action as Eucharistic people, reflecting the light of Christ.
