We value a school where we grow in awareness and respond to the needs of others in a spirit of service.

We challenge our students to put their faith into action through the quality of their relationships, in giving and compassion and throughout their lives.

Faith in Action
We challenge our students to live their faith through compassion, integrity, and the quality of their relationships, guided by Catholic Social Teaching and the words of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop “Never see a need without doing something about it”.

A Community of Outreach
Students have opportunities to engage in meaningful outreach that supports those in need. Each School has a strong connection with one or more local charity organisations, such as the St Vincent de Paul Society and Cancer Council Tasmania, ensuring our students understand the impact of local advocacy.

House Spirit, Global Vision
Our four Houses - MacKillop, Nagle, Rice, and Tenison - each champion a specific service organisation, fostering a culture of solidarity and awareness. Our whole-school charity events aim to reach out to the most impoverished and vulnerable people in our world. Project Compassion enables us to support Caritas Australia and educate our young people about issues such as global social justice and global inequity.


Ascent

Ascent is a three year service and formation program based on our founding charisms for Year 10, 11 and 12 students. Carefully structured programs at each year level are age and stage appropriate, enabling students to grow and develop as compassionate people in our society, with the support of trained staff.
