Mr Daniel Fallico<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The College Vision Statement has been updated this year following our five year review. This review included all stakeholders within the College reflecting on our development and growth, concluding with setting clear direction and priorities for the next five years. The updated Vision Statement now reads: \u00a0

\u201cA Daring Faith, A Dynamic Education, Developing Strong Minds and Gentle Hearts.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the process of electing our 2025 Captain and Vice Captains, nominees were tasked with speaking in front of the entire College staff. They answered the question: \u201cWhat does this vision mean to you and how will it shape your leadership of the College in 2025?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All students spoke with passion, love for the College and a desire to serve the community. Our newly elected College Captain, Rocco Bragg, specifically shared his interpretation of these concepts and his hopes for what the College should prioritise from a student voice perspective. It is vital we give our young men a platform to inform change and be heard in the decision making process. Listening to our students leads to collaboration, which in turn fosters the development of an authentic community, which we hope, ultimately helps achieve our vision statement.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Excerpts from Rocco Bragg\u2019s speech<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our College aims to develop Strong Minds through a Dynamic Education enabling our boys to think outside the box. A Dynamic Education. not strong education or perfect education, but dynamic. Dynamic is defined as \u2018characterised by constant change, activity, or progress.\u2019 Progress<\/strong> – that’s what struck me. What makes Marist\u2019s education different from others, is the fact that we\u2019re progressive, we don\u2019t look for perfection, we look for constant improvement.\u00a0<\/em>

Gentle hearts, through a Daring faith, allows our boys to be compassionate, caring and merciful. Daring is defined as bold and adventurous. I love that, because it encourages our boys to not just comply with what is taught through faith, but instead to actively seek for their character among their faith, to be bold. Building their hearts into something loving and gentle.\u00a0<\/em>

My vision as a College Captain is to improve the Presence and Family Spirit among the community, as Strong Minds and Gentle Hearts are enhanced through human connection. This means having the courage to talk to new people. As the only way humans are able to progress is through exposure to new ideas.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This vision and the desire of our future leadership team stem from the development and growth they have experienced during their time at the College, through their day-to-day interactions and full participation in College life. Leaders are developed through opportunities, and we are excited about the next chapter of our College, working with our students aligned to our collective vision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
