Our College motto is Fortes in Fide (strong in faith), and this epitomises our educational approach.

As a Catholic school and in the charism of the Sisters of Charity we are proud and celebrate the Catholic tradition to which we belong and emphasise the gospel values of love, integrity, respect, commitment, forgiveness, hope and compassion.

There is a place for all at Mount Carmel – whether they be believers, searchers, or non-believers – and the Primary Religious Education and Secondary Theology & Spirituality programs accommodate this range of perspectives and backgrounds.  These programs are devised in response to the Good News for Living framework, a living document that grapples with ‘mystery, life, faith and love’.

In discerning their own faith response, students are encouraged to appreciate and respect the beliefs and expressions of faith of others. 

In a world of constant and rapid change, where it sometimes seems the ground is shifting all the time, the gospel values provide a guide for life when exploring “matters of profound importance.”
