Principal’s Welcome

I believe our College is a place where students can learn in a safe and nurturing environment, where faith, hope and love are a central part of the learning journey.

Thank you for visiting our website. I trust that as you explore these pages that you will begin to discover a little about our unique culture and be inspired to find out more about the Parklands Community.

I love our school, and the many students and families that walk onto our site each day. Every member of our community is a valued part of Parklands, and we believe that every individual that walks onto our site is a blessing from God.

It is a privilege to be able to contribute to the growth and development of the whole child, and develop their God given gifts and talents. We applaud both success and the learning that comes from failure. Sometimes learning comes easy, and at other times it is hard won. Both experiences are valuable learning opportunities that develop character, knowledge and wisdom.

Every Parklands staff member is committed to the care of our students, and invests in ‘connection’ with children and young adults so that effective learning can take place. We believe that when teachers and students are connected and ‘right-relationship’ is established, great learning can take place. Similarly, when College staff are working harmoniously with families, community is strengthened and great connections and trust are formed.

May God bless and keep you, and if you would like to find out more about us, we welcome the opportunity to hear from you soon.
