Mission Statement

After the example of Don Bosco we aim to enable each person to become a good Christian, an honest citizen, able to earn his bread.

Good Christians: knowing their religion, with good experience appropriate to their age of prayer and liturgy, of reflection on their own life and vocation, of service to others; appreciative of the beauty of the world; respecting others and able to work with them; maturing as members of the Church; respectful of those of other Christian traditions and other faiths.

Honest citizens: good members of the smaller communities to which they belong, the form, the year, the College; understanding their place in them, their duties and their rights; extending this understanding into the larger community and society; and given the opportunity to understand how society works and how they can play their part in it with a keen sense of justice.

Able to earn their bread: learning good habits of work, of diligence and of self-respect; raising their aspirations and sights as high as possible; obtaining the best possible educational qualifications which will open doors to further education and to work.
