Our Vision
St Philip’s Christian College Gosford seeks to be a leading provider of quality Christian schooling within our nation, where:
- Every student develops a personal faith in Jesus Christ and is empowered to live with purpose, integrity and joy.
- Every student achieves their God-given potential and is well equipped to make a significant contribution to society.
- Every student benefits from innovative and effective learning experiences taught by skilled and dedicated teachers.
- Every student enjoys a safe and secure learning environment wherein they feel connected and affirmed.
- Every student contributes to a culture of respect, dignity, care and concern for others.
- Every student has access to excellent learning resources and is taught in the best learning facilities we can provide.
Our Vision is to ignite passion and purpose for the whole of life. This means we help students to understand the gifts and skills that they have been blessed with, while at the same time helping them to understand more about the heavenly creator behind those blessings. We do this by hiring staff that display such passion and purpose in their own life so that they may model what it looks like to live with such passion and purpose. In doing so, our students are encouraged to make a difference in the world.
