Motto

Caritas Christi Urget Nos - The Love of Christ Urges Us On

Mission

St. Vincent’s is a Catholic girls’ secondary school. We recognise the uniqueness and needs of all our students, staff, parents and partners. Through a broad based curriculum, we aim to educate each student so that she may achieve her full personal, social, spiritual and academic potential. We welcome the participation of all our partners in the life of our school community.

Trustees

In 1857 the sisters of Charity started teaching girls in St. Vincent’s.  A Board of Management was set up in 1991 to take charge of the running of St. Vincent’s Secondary School.  This Board consists of eight members who are appointed by the Trustees.  Four of these members are nominated by the Trustees, along with two parent nominees and two teacher nominees.  The spirit of enthusiasm and dedication of the Sisters of Charity is shared by these nominees.

The Trustees continue to own the school and all major projects and refurbishment are sanctioned by them.  The Provincial Team keeps contact with and visits St. Vincent’s regularly. The model of trusteeship for the future is currently under review.


Ethos

St. Vincent’s is a Catholic school owned and managed by the Religious Sisters of Charity.

The school concentrates on the development of the whole person by providing for the religious, moral, social, physical and intellectual growth of the students.  The school strives for academic excellence while recognizing the need constantly to develop a curriculum where compassion and co-operation are given a higher value than competition.  The religious education of students is, and is seen to be, of fundamental importance.  The school is committed to enabling the student to develop a healthy self-image and to form positive relationships with others.  The school seeks means of working effectively towards curriculum development in the light of the changing needs of the students.  Good relationships between home and school are encouraged, as these are essential to the educational process.
