School Vision Statement
Cathedral School
is a school community
in the Catholic tradition,
founded in faith,
challenged by Gospel values,
striving for
a standard
of excellence
in all areas of school life.
The motto of Cathedral School that underpins all that we do is:
Faith • Values • Excellence
This motto is taken from our Vision statement as a continual reminder of the vision that we have for the students, teachers and community of Cathedral School – that we are a faith-filled community, inspired by
Jesus Christ, that sets high ideals and expectations for all.
“Its task is fundamentally a synthesis of culture and faith, and a synthesis
of life and faith. The first is reached by integrating all different aspects
of human knowledge through the subjects taught, in the light of the
Gospel; the second in the growth of the virtues characteristic of the
Christian.” (Congregation for the Catholic Education, The Catholic School, 1977)
We have developed symbols, colours and rituals based on a process of renewal that began in 2013.
