2022 – Compassion: Walking with and having empathy for all

2022 is sure to still have some unexpected bumps, but it has been wonderful to see students and staff back at the College learning face-to-face. Each year level has started with a real sense of purpose and determination ready to embrace the challenges that lie ahead and enjoy the opportunity to rebuild relationships.

 

The College community is resilient and full of hope. It is this sense of hope that brings a purpose to what we do each and every day. 2022 is the year of ‘Compassion’ at the College and both students and staff are passionate about their desire to walk with and have empathy for all.

 

“Compassion. It’s not just a word - 

It’s a way of being. 

It’s not just a concept - 

It’s love in action.”

(Jeff Brown)
