Catholic Life

St Anne's is not just a school, it is a Catholic school - and therefore much more than just an academic provider. We are a faith community, playing our part in fulfilling the Church's mission. We welcome those of all faiths and none through our doors, recognising that each person within our community is unique in the eyes of God.

Consequent upon the reasons why they are provided, Catholics schools should exhibit the following four fundamental characteristics which promote the permanent principles of Catholic social teaching: the dignity of human life, the common good, subsidiarity, and solidarity.

Our school motto here at St Anne’s is ‘to know, love and serve God’. We put our school motto into action by trying to live by our six SACRED Values of Service, Ambition, Compassion, Respect, Equality & Determination. Here is a summary of just some of the ways you will learn more about our SACRED Values and more importantly put them into action!
