OUR MOTTO

"All to all in faith and learning"

OUR VISION

St Paul's Moss Vale is a Catholic community that respects the dignity of all and strives to provide a quality learning environment focused on the life of Jesus.

ALL TO ALL
From St Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians 9:22: “I become all things to all people so I may save people by whatever means are possible.”

FAITH
A dynamic faith centred in Jesus Christ and expressed in lived relationship, prayer, liturgy, information and social action.

LEARNING
Transformative learning that is authentic, purpose-filled, intellectually rigorous and leads to growth in wisdom.

BUBBLES
Bubbles can be large or small, different shapes and multiple colours. As a sphere the bubbles hold our values, as they disperse, the bubbles carry our values to all the community. We become alive and dynamic in faith and learning together.

CHILD
Represents all people of our school who, with God’s grace, are willing to take a risk and grow in faith and learning.

PLANTS
Our St Paul’s community is enriched by the influence of Indigenous life and culture. The plants symbolise the healing power of Jesus. Just as the bracken fern root rubbed on the ant sting will reduce pain, the forgiveness of Jesus will reduce our anxiety and help us to show forgiveness towards others.

OUR MISSION

In the spirit of Saint Paul the Apostle the staff of the school will continue to provide a Catholic learning environment that:

• Embraces Jesus and the Catholic faith as the heart of our school community, sharing in the evangelising mission of the Church with parents and the parish;
