As you may remember the three tenets of the Carmelite ethos are Contemplation, Community and Service. These are not just some fluffy words we place on our letterhead and in PowerPoint presentations, they are words steeped in over eight hundred years of tradition. The words were first initiated on a small mountain in Israel called Mt. Carmel by a group of hermits who devoted their lives to Jesus and the community they served. These were people understood what it truly meant to live in community. A community founded on unconditional love, trust, faith, justice, respect, empathy, compassion and mercy. Eight hundred years later, I have the joy every day of seeing these values lived out by students, parents and staff at Whitefriars whose words and actions enhance and grow the Carmelite culture of Contemplation, Community and Service.

In Fide – 28 March 2024
This week our College came together to reflect and pray on the meaning of Easter in our lives at our annual Easter Liturgical Celebration. The recurring theme which emerged from this celebration was one of hope. There is no doubt that our world is currently consumed with feelings of hopelessness. We crave good news stories that inspire hope in our lives. The Good news of our Easter story is that God Loved the world so much that he sent his son Jesus to be hope for the world. Jesus’ love for us was so great that he gave his life for us and was raised from the dead to give us hope and new life and to inspire us to be hope for others.
Our Values
The College supports every student to seek and achieve excellence in their learning, their relationships and their participation in the community. Students are invited to appreciate the Christan worldview and see the goodness of God in themselves, all others and the natural world.
