The Catholic Secondary School as a centre of learning embraces and promotes the spiritual, physical, academic and social aspects of every student and therefore endeavours to cater, as far as possible, for the ability, needs and interests of the individual.

All students have to be given the opportunity to prepare themselves for life in the society of which they will be part. Community, which is the base of society, has to be seen as an important and integral part of living. A sense of community must be nurtured in the students, which should lead to a growing concern for the well-being of others and their rights, and a desire to help establish peace and justice in the world around them.

St Clare’s College attempts to be a true reflection of the teachings of Jesus as espoused in the Gospels. The College, therefore, attempts to provide a caring and just environment for staff, students and their families.

The College reflects the Catholic tradition through formal Religious Education classes, the Pastoral Care framework and programs and the quality of its prayer life and liturgies.

The College is a Spirited Learning Community, open to life, challenge and change. It promotes high achievement and values the uniqueness of each individual.

St Clare's College acknowledges and celebrates its achievements as a community. It is committed to building the collective capacity of the community to shape its future direction.
