About St Ignatius College
College Vision & Mission
Our Vision
At Saint Ignatius College our purpose is to form young people of competence, conscience and compassion.
Mission Statement
Saint Ignatius College is a Catholic community that is learning-centred and supportive in the Ignatian tradition.
The College is committed to the education of the whole person and the development of young adults of competence, conscience and compassion who will be of service in the community.
We strive to recognise God’s presence in all things, to celebrate the pursuit of personal excellence and to live with hope and respect for all creation.
Striving for the Magis
Ignatius in his writings calls us to strive for the 'Magis' - 'the more'. The more is a key to making choices among competing values. The entire life of Ignatius Loyola was a search for the Magis – that is, the more universal good, the more effective means, the more generous service of others, and the ever greater glory of God. Magis energises us for action.
At Saint Ignatius College we will:
•Provide opportunities for students, staff, parents and alumni to experience a sense of belonging to a faith-filled Christian community and to commit themselves to being of service to others
•Respect the role of parents as the primary educators of their children
•Be enthusiastic in imparting knowledge of Catholic faith and traditions, enabling students to accept truth freely and develop a Christian moral conscience
•Promote growth and improvement in learning and living for the greater glory of God in the Ignatian way
•Support students in striving for their personal best - the Magis - in all their endeavours.

Jesuit Educational Philosophy
Since the launch of their first school in 1548, the Jesuits have believed that a high quality education is the best path to meaningful lives of leadership and service.
Jesuits have understood that the liberal arts, the natural and social sciences, and the performing arts, linked with all other branches of knowledge, are a powerful means of developing leaders with the potential to influence and transform society.
The Jesuit Education Ministry includes Jesuit owned and operated schools, university colleges and chaplaincies, affiliated lgnatian schools, and the intellectual apostolate.
A Jesuit education has a clear purpose: the development of a well-rounded Christian person of competence, conscience and compassion who will be of service in the world and has the generosity to make a contribution.
Historically, Jesuit education has been successful across many cultures because it has adapted to the environment of the learner. Today Jesuit education continues to embrace change in appropriate ways, ensuring that a Jesuit education meets the needs of modern day learners, and develops learners who themselves will strive to contribute meaningfully and to excel.
