Sport

As strong competitors in many different disciplines, we ensure that fitness, skill and sportsmanship shine through in all of our activities.

Arts & Culture

Our vibrant Arts and Culture programmes engender a great love, appreciation and passion for this area of school life and beyond. Exceptional talent comes to the fore and is enhanced for all within our programmes, thus providing children with the opportunity to shine.

Ethos

Our Catholic, Marist Ethos is at the heart of all we do. Following in the footsteps of our founder, St Marcellin Champagnat, we know that ‘In order to teach children, you must first love them and love them all equally’. With a heart that knows no bounds, we embrace those of all faiths within the Marist school setting.

Outreach

As Marists of Champagnat, we are called to ‘have a particular care for those least favoured by life’. We live out these words of our founder through outreach programmes that give back to various organisations who serve those in need.
