Article by Mr Paul Lewis
At Saint Ignatius College our purpose is to form young people of competence, conscience and compassion.
Saint Ignatius College is a Catholic community in the Ignatian tradition, that is learning-centred and supportive.
The College is committed to the education of the whole person and the development of young adults of competence, conscience and compassion who will be of service in the community.
We strive to recognize God’s presence in all things, to celebrate the pursuit of personal excellence and to live with hope and respect for all creation.
Forming women and men for others; students of conscience, competence and compassion.
Context: What do we need to know about our students?
Experience: What is the best way to engage our students in learning?
Reflection: How do our students reflect more deeply on what they have learned?
Action: How do we encourage students to move beyond knowledge to action?
Evaluation: How do we assess our students’ growth in mind, heart and spirit?
Since they launched their first school in 1548 the Jesuits have believed that a high quality education is the best path to meaningful lives of leadership and service.
We do not want successful professionals in failed societies
It has nothing to do with social, financial or professional success, it’s an excellence in humanity; forming better human beings, people with a heart, with compassion, with understanding.
With blessing and best wishes,
Paul Lewis
Deputy Principal – Staff, Identity and Operations
