Mission Statement
St. Paul School exists to promote the development of its students.
In cooperation with parents, St. Paul School endeavors to develop the entire person; to develop spiritual, intellectual, physical, social, and emotional aspects of every member of the school community, and to foster a school environment that is safe, respectful, and accepting of all students, so as to enable them to become responsible members of the Church and society.
School Philosophy
As children of God, made in God’s image, we are pilgrims learning and teaching at St. Paul School. Together we work to serve God and our fellow sisters and brothers. Jesus Christ is the focal point of our school life; where we not only learn about Christ, but also teach Christian principles by work and example. The activities of the school are filled and governed by the spirit of the Gospel. At St. Paul we endeavour to develop a true Christian community in which all members’ work together to promote the growth of one another as we journey towards our final home, Heaven. We challenge the students to achieve their highest level of performance and strive for excellence.
Implication Of The School Philosophy For Parents
Our philosophy is based on the great commandment: “You shall love the Lord, your God, with your whole heart and soul
and mind and strength; you shall love your neighbour as yourself.” In faith and love, we build a living Christian community.
While the students are encouraged to aim for academic excellence, they are instructed in the Catholic faith as a way of life
to be lived in empathy and understanding of others.
Commitment
When you enrol your children in St. Paul School you should understand that, in choosing this school, you are
committing yourself to our philosophy of education.
Values & Attitudes
Christian values and attitudes are integrated throughout the day and should be evident in how we treat each other within the classroom, on the playground and in community gatherings. Together, all members, adults and children will foster a climate of understanding, caring and learning.
Faith
In sending your children to St. Paul you do not abdicate your primary role in the education of your children, but simply delegate it. You continue to be the primary educators of your children “in the ways of the faith”. The school is supporting, not substituting, the religious life and activities of the family.
