Our Mission

“The person of each individual human being, in her or his material and spiritual needs, is at the heart of Christ’s teaching; this is why the promotion of the human person is the goal of the Catholic School” JPII [#9]

 To nurture, we are called
• to care for each individual, affirming their dignity and uniqueness
• to foster the right relationships with God, creation, self and others
• to provide particular attention to those most in need
• to build a welcoming, safe and supportive school environment.
 
We are entrusted
• to nourish our spiritual life and ministry
• to connect with the Parish, Diocesan and wider community
• to strengthen relationships and communication between members of the educating community
• to make present the spirit of Nano Nagle, Edmund Rice and Mary, Mother of God.
 
As faithful, we are called
• to strive for an understanding of ourselves and others as dignified and loved by God
• to value the unique contributions made by each person
• to practise justice through tolerance, empathy and service
• to pray, celebrate and evangelise with a Catholic perspective
• to build hope in a faith-filled future.
 
As learners, we are encouraged
