At St Mary's College, we aim to educate our students with an
appreciation of the spiritual as well as the intellectual and physical aspects
of their lives. We strive to create an environment that puts the student at the
centre and where that student is supported by dedicated teaching staff and
tremendous community spirit. We aim to instil a can-do attitude in all
our students and work with them all to engender high aspiration and a range of
personal skills and qualities including self-confidence and leadership
abilities. We ensure that we are developing our students not just academically,
but as well-rounded young adults ready to be future citizens who will
positively contribute to their community and the wider society when they
leave.
