Our Mission Statement

At Mater Dei, inspired by our beliefs and our school motto “Growing together in Christ”, we name as our Mission the following priorities which place our students at the centre of the endeavours of the entire school community.

1. We are guided by our belief that students learn best in a community where they can grow in the knowledge of their faith and where Gospel Values such as justice, compassion, joy and forgiveness are integral to all that we do and say. 

2. We are guided by our belief that students learn best when curriculum is meaningful and challenging and where teaching practices are appropriate to individual learning needs. 

3. We are guided by the belief that students learn best when they work in a challenging, stimulating and nurturing environment that encourages them to become critically reflective learners. 

4. We are guided by our belief that students learn best in a community which nurtures the dignity, self-esteem and well-being of all and where collaboration is highly valued. 

5. We are guided by our belief that students work best in an environment where there is effective partnership between home, school, parish and the wider community. 

6. We are guided by our belief that students will develop and achieve positive educational outcomes in a safe, stimulating and aesthetically pleasing environment.
