Have your say – Melbourne Catholic Archdiocese Synod 2026
Our school community is invited to contribute to the Melbourne Synod 2026, an important process of listening and discernment that will help shape the future evangelical and missionary priorities of the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne.
The Synod invites people across Melbourne to reflect on three themes – Young Discipleship, Missionary Leadership, and Formation and Participation – and share their experiences, ideas and hopes for the future of our Church.
As a Catholic school community, this is an opportunity for our students, families, staff and broader community to have a voice in this important conversation.
You can participate individually by reading one or more of the Synod theme papers and responding to the reflection questions through the relevant online form. Our school may also provide opportunities for community members to participate in a facilitated discussion and contribute to a collective response.
We particularly encourage young people and families to share their voices and perspectives as the Archdiocese considers how to strengthen faith, belonging, participation and missionary discipleship for the future.
Feedback for this stage of consultation closes at 5.00 pm on Saturday 5 September 2026.
