Our Mercy Qualities— Care and Responsibility, Excellence and Optimism, Justice and Service and Spirituality and Faith—are the foundation of everything we do.
Our dedicated staff deliver the Australian Curriculum and the Brisbane Catholic Education Religious Education Curriculum through a whole-school approach grounded in research and evidence-based strategies. With a sharp focus on developing the whole child, we ensure consistent and differentiated learning that supports continuous growth and achievement for every student, every day.
