GARTH WYNNE From our Executive Principal
Since the beginning of this year, the College Board and Executive, with input from the wider community, have been working toward the creation of a new strategic plan to direct College priorities toward 2020. Thoughtful respect for the past has been combined with the needs of the present and our hope for the future. Through this process our College motto, mission, and Gospel-inspired virtues have all been re-affirmed and we have articulated that we will work within a strategic environment where “innovation and excellence are wrapped in tradition”. Our vision, the aspiration within and beyond ourselves for now and the future, has been stated in this way: Christ’s College will be a vibrant school community that educates boys to be men of virtuous character who make a positive contribution to society. In the context of College , it is the word “vibrant” from our vision that
stands out for me. A vibrant school is full of energy and life, it is high- spirited, dynamic, vigorous and vital. This publication so captures this in the stories it tells of our boys, staff and community. The words and photographs present a wonderful tapestry of our programme and its celebration of success in all its forms. It presents boys, busy and fulfilled by stimulating environments. It recognises the centrality of relationships as the key to all we do. All of this is achieved through the combined efforts of supportive and helpful parents, wonderful staff and remarkable boys. Please enjoy this slice of our vision in action.
