The policy of education in the school run by the Congregation of the Carmelite Religious (CCR) is based on the life of Lord Jesus Christ as revealed in the Gospels of the Holy Bible. This encompasses development of a GROWING CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS and DIGNITY. This enables TO LIVE IN COMPANIONSHIP and COMMUNAL COOPERATION. The concern is FOR ALL GOD’S PEOPLE WITHIN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY where the school is situated and ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE OF HRISITIAN FAITH and THE MATERIALLY WEAK. Education also includes the DEVELOPMENT OF COMPREHENSION AND JUDGEMENT and the skill enabling a person to BE A COMMITTED CITIZEN, PEACE-LOVING, and JOYOUS AND JUST IN THIS WORLD. In this way, GOD’s plan for His world may be realized and humankind may attain the fullness of life.
