Mission and Prayer

Our Mission

Through the presence of Jesus Christ the St Jude's community believes in educating spirit, mind and body to embrace today and meet the challenges of the future.

At St Jude's we:

  • accept Christ as our model, inspiring our beliefs, thoughts and actions;
  • believe in education in faith in the Catholic Tradition;
  • value the uniqueness of each person in a loving, inclusive and secure environment;
  • promote an active partnership between parents, carers, Parish, school and the wider community, in which each person feels a sense of pride and dignity;
  • celebrate the challenges, excitement and love of teaching and learning in an ever changing world;
  • assist children to make informed choices recognising that these are linked with responsibilities;
  • provide opportunities for a high standard of education through a variety of teaching strategies and learning experiences.
