OUR MISSION

Our Mission is to be a centre of educational excellence, opportunity, challenge and support within a caring Christian environment.

Our Vision – A Catholic College for the Community

Carmel College:

  • is founded on the person, example and teaching of Jesus Christ
  • acknowledges the need for God and for the guidance of the Holy Spirit in the creation of a truly Christian community
  • believes that every individual is made in the image and likeness of God, to be valued, respected, nurtured and challenged
  • promotes self esteem of the individual and enables students to make a valuable contribution to society
  • upholds Gospel values of justice, love, peace, reconciliation and concern for the disadvantaged
  • celebrates the richness of creation; respects and explores differences of faith and culture; and fosters ecumenical collaboration.

All members of the College Community are expected to make an active contribution to this Vision.
