Vision
Our vision reflects four key improvement priorities for the next strategic period:
- Catholic Identity
- Teaching, Learning & Wellbeing
- Community Identity
- Facilities, Staffing & Sustainability
Each of these improvement priorities is represented in our vision statement:
Good Counsel College is a contemporary Catholic learning community where every student is known and valued. We provide access to multiple pathways so that students are empowered to make meaningful life choices. They are engaged in learning that is relevant, collaborative, and future-focused. Staff, students, parents and carers make up a safe, supportive environment where everyone belongs, working together to achieve positive outcomes for all. We are a well-respected local college and proudly the school of choice in our community. Our college boasts growing enrolments, engaging and highly professional staff, diverse subject choices, and modern facilities to support the needs of the college community.
We acknowledge the First Nations peoples of Australia, the traditional custodians of the land, seas, skies and waterways on which we reside, work, travel and meet. We pay our respect to First Nations elders past, present, and emerging, and support the Uluru Statement From The Heart. We acknowledge that the land, seas, skies and waterways of Australia were, are and always will be, that of the First Nations peoples.
