- Implement structures which enable students to experience Gospel values.
- Introduce children to our Catholic heritage.
- Offer a curriculum in the subject areas of Religious Education, English, Mathematics,Science, the Arts, Studies of Society and Environment, Technology, Health and Physical Education, Language other than English.
- Respect individual learners and promote academic excellence.

- Encourage co-operation, responsibility, self discipline and freedom so that the child can grow towards his/her potential physically, emotionally, spiritually and intellectually.
- Encourage home/school partnership in every possible way.
