School Mission, College Values

SCHOOL MISSION

PLC Sydney is a ministry of the Presbyterian Church. As such, its mission is: To be an authentic Christian College To be a College offering an excellent education

COLLEGE VALUES

Our values are based on a Christian worldview and expressed through four core ideals. We strive to provide an environment where all endeavours and relationships in the College are underpinned by the following values:

GRACE

The underlying framework for our College is that each student realises that there is a givenness to life that is beyond their control for which they are truly grateful. They have a life, and they are who they are because of the grace of God, the love of their families and the support and enabling of others.

AN ATTITUDE OF REVERENCE

Deep respect tinged with awe for the Word of God and the beauty and wonder of the natural world and humanity. With this attitude we view the world with inspiration and hope, undertake our endeavours with passion and base our relationships on respect for ourselves and others.

THE PURSUIT OF WISDOM

Which begins with a spirit of inquiry for knowledge and truth and through discipline and challenge leads to well-considered judgement. Wisdom is humble, not conceited.

PARTICIPATION IN SERVICE

To make a difference in the world. Contributing to communities in this way builds personal character through understanding and compassion and fulfils the obligations and responsibilities of citizenship.
