Catholic Identity

Vision Statements

At St Anne’s College we strive to:

  • Develop a relationship with God that supports and nurtures our personal faith.
  • Create relationships that are collaborative and in partnership with students, staff, parents, parish and the wider community.
  • Empower individuals to grow in confidence and a willingness to explore their world: spiritually, academically, socially, emotionally and physically.
  • Implement a curriculum that is contemporary, focuses on the needs of the individual and celebrates the joys of new learning.

Enhancing Catholic School Identity (ECSI)

This is your last chance to complete the survey.

I invite you to participate in the ECSI survey which will assist us in better understanding how our Catholic Identity is expressed in work and practice here at St Anne’s College.

 

The Catholic University in Leuven, was commissioned by the Catholic Education Commission of Victoria Ltd (CECV) to design a process and tools, based on sound research, to accomplish the goal of understanding our current Catholic identity and where the school community might like to see itself in the future.

 

The ECSI survey is a key element in this process and I write to request your participation.  The online survey gathers responses from students in Year Seven, all staff, and a representative sample of parents.

 

You are asked to complete the survey online; it may take you up to an hour to do so. Try not to get caught up in the questions, simply respond intuitively.

 

To access the survey go to: www.schoolidentity.net 


Website Access Password: Ghj654

Entry Code: RAUw5k

 

Keeping a record of your individual User code and Password will allow you to complete the survey over two or more sessions.

 

The survey is only available through the project website; please refer to the ‘Instructions for Survey Completion for Parents’. Your responses to this survey are guaranteed to be kept anonymous.

 

If you have any questions, please contact me through the college office.

 

Thank you for your consideration of this request and for your anticipated participation.

CARITAS AUSTRALIA: Project Compassion 2019

Project Compassion, run by Caritas Australia, works hard to make a difference for those in our world that may be suffering such injustices as Jesus experienced.  This week we hear from MICHAELA FROM ALICE SPRINGS, AUSTRALIA

Twenty-one year-old Michaela is helping to build a social enterprise for people with chronic illnesses at The Purple House in Alice Springs. Featured in Project Compassion 2014, the First Australian-run Wellbeing Program, uses its profits to connect and care for dialysis patients who are far from home.

“Hope means having something to look forward to. I enjoy building relationships with the patients and learning from them. If we keep our culture alive we can feel strong.”
