The six key strands of our Salesian Ethos mesh the core values of our inheritance with best practice from Salesian ministry in today's world. Our ethos has found various expressions through the years since the nineteenth century but the following key strands have always been present.
Family Atmosphere
For Don Bosco and Mary Mazzarello a homely and family atmosphere always created a welcoming and warm atmosphere for the young people in their care.
Holistic and Person Centred
In our Salesian tradition the dignity of the whole person stems from a belief that life is a gift from God.
Good Christians and Honest Citizens
We believe that the human condition is one of striving continuously to be in right relationship with God, self, others and creation.
Empowerment
It empowers people through an educational approach that recognizes and develops individual giftedness
Spiritual Journey
Our ethos is grounded in a Christian spirituality. It celebrates daily life as the place of meeting with God.
Joy and Celebration
All our education is characterised by a spirit of joy, celebration, confidence, familiarity, friendliness and freedom.
