Social Action and Justice 


Our Catholic and ecumenical schools derive their understanding of social action and justice from scripture and Church social teaching. Christians understand that a just society establishes right relationships marked by love, compassion and peace.

Action for Justice

Action for justice is integral to the Christian vocation. Action for justice, peace and ecological sustainability is based on the dream of Jesus to establish the Kingdom of God.

School communities act for justice when they demonstrate a commitment to the poor and marginalised, actively work for peace and practise stewardship of the earth.

School communities consciously plan for and implement these reflective elements into their justice initiatives through an actionreflection process.
