Ethos and Values
Have faith… believe you can!
Our mission is to be a Catholic School where every individual is highly valued and where care and concern for others is central to our work. All our students are expected to achieve their full potential and become equipped for adult life. At SJB everything we do is guided by Gospel values.
Students and staff work together to create a community where Gospel values permeate all our practices, policies, decisions, words and actions. We are guided by Christ’s teaching and each day we strive to follow his example.
The School Mission Statement, our motto and the Gospel Values guide us in everything we say and do at St John the Baptist School.
With Christ at the Centre, the key elements of ‘who we are’, ‘what we can do’, and ‘what we learn’ here at SJB can be seen below.
Who we are
Centred in Christ example, these are the 5 core values that we seek to instil in our students. More details can be found on the images below.

- Positive attitude
