Vision, Mission & Values

Our Vision

In Service of Christ and Community, we seek Excellence

The heart of life is Christ, through Him we can live abundantly. We aspire to educate in faith the whole person, so that they bear witness to Gospel values when creating the society envisaged by Christ.

As a College, we celebrate our diverse community. We aspire for our students to connect both locally and globally, and serve as agents of change who work for the common good in transforming society for the better.

We possess the potential for excellence and want individuals to realise their unique purpose. We aspire to form courageous leaders who strive to be their best and challenge society to make present God’s desire for humanity.

Our Mission

We promote the formation of the whole person, to be an instrument of Christ in this world

As a life-long learning community where education is illumined by faith, we are attentive to the whole person, continually formed in order to find a place in a society characterised by skill. The pursuit of excellence in those skills is intentional and grounded in the conviction that knowledge set in the context of faith becomes wisdom.

As a Church community, we promote this formation to be a sign of Christ in a dynamic world. This commitment to truth is attentive to culture and recognises that knowledge is valuable when in service of others. This integration of faith, life and culture occurs in an engaging environment that empowers members to contribute to the progress of society.

Our Values

CHARACTER

The strength of qualities within an individual that determines how they think, feel and behave. This value upholds the distinct personality of each student who is encouraged to grow in Christ. Character calls us to live the expectations of the College.

LEARNING

The integration of human knowledge, belief, and behaviour that stems from the education process. This value promotes a cycle of enquiry, critical thinking, creation and reflection. The culture of Chisholm calls us to sustain a spirit of lifelong learning.

COMPASSION

The concern for others, and taking action to alleviate any adversity. This value is exemplified in the life of Christ and Caroline Chisholm. Compassion calls us to serve the needs of others to make our world a better place.
