It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the Holy Spirit College community. At Holy Spirit College we aim to educate our students with an appreciation of the spiritual as well as the intellectual and physical aspects of their lives. We strive to work with our parents/carers to produce young people of faith and character.
We strive to create an environment that puts the student at the centre and where that student is supported by dedicated teaching staff and tremendous community spirit. As a team, we are looking forward to developing further, the learning and teaching opportunities that will engage our students and build our teaching tools to deliver a dynamic and progressive curriculum.
We aim to instill a can-do attitude in all our students and work with them all to engender high aspirations and a range of personal skills and qualities including self-confidence and leadership ability. We ensure that we will develop our students not just academically, but as well-rounded young adults ready to be future citizens who will positively contribute to their community and the wider society when they graduate.
It is also acknowledged that social, spiritual, emotional, cognitive, and physical development will occur in students at different rates as they progress towards young adulthood. Therefore, it is essential to accommodate these differences, not by having different standards and expectations for individual students, rather by adjusting the amount of guidance, support and freedom students operate within for their stage of progress.
Embarking on a visionary journey for building the school is a blend of exhilaration, anticipation and enthusiasm. Each element of this meticulous masterplan is a stroke of imagination and ingenuity, setting the stage for an educational sanctuary that will stand as a testament of progress.
I am looking forward to leading Holy Spirit College into the era of new educational strategies, igniting spirit and inspiring minds, working closely with all parents/carers, students, staff and the wider community.
