Excellence in Learning and Success for All

Nazareth Catholic Community celebrates the individuality of all young people and strives for success for all. This core intention is achieved by cultivating high quality teaching and learning programs, allowing for innovation, exploration, creativity, diversity and inclusivity.

Young people are engaged with a holistic and integrated approach to the curriculum and learning pathways that help them be people of justice, who respond to social and environmental needs. Underpinned by strong home, school and community values and engagement, the partnership between staff, students, young people and families ensures everyone is striving for the same outcomes and are working to achieve them.

The community at Nazareth strives to foster learning opportunities that are life-giving and lifelong. From a newborn baby, to the longest serving senior members of the community, Nazareth upholds a core belief that everyone has something precious and unique to contribute.

But the heart of success goes further than excellent academic outcomes, and as such young people at Nazareth are encouraged not only to realise their full potential, but are also inspired to become role models and thought leaders committed to positive change.
