Our Lady of the Rosary School strives for excellence within a Catholic environment which fosters each child’s spiritual, intellectual, social, moral, emotional, creative, and physical development (OLR Vision and Mission Statement, 2019). We are part of Brisbane Catholic Education’s mission to be a “faith-filled community creating a better future”.
Our school motto “To know, love and serve” God is also reflected in our approach to education.
- Know: Know our learners
- Love: Act with compassion and care
- Serve: All of our endeavours are for the best interests of our learners.
We aspire to the Brisbane Catholic Education beliefs that:
- Every learner is created in the image and likeness of God and inspired by the Spirit, responds with passion and creativity to life.
- Every learner is in some respect, like all others, like some others, like no other and we respond creatively, flexibly, and with a futures orientation to ensure dignity and justice for all.
- Every learner can achieve success in life and learning where diversity is valued and shared wisdom contributes to decision-making that enriches and enlivens our world.
To achieve our mission and the goals for education in Australia, Our Lady of the Rosary School established a Mission and Vision Document in 2019. This document is complemented by more recent work in 2021/2022 on our Vision for Learning poster and our Learning Growth placemat.
