Mercy Vision & Values
St Aloysius College is a Catholic school for girls shaped by the tradition of Mercy.
The Congregation of the Sisters of Mercy was founded in Ireland in 1831, when Catherine McAuley, in response to the needs of the time, established an institute particularly for the care and education of vulnerable girls and young women.
Since then, the Congregation has continued to act in response to contemporary needs in society. As part of this heritage, St Aloysius College was established in Adelaide in 1880 by the Sisters of Mercy to educate girls to realise their own potential and to contribute more fully to the wider community.
MISSION STATEMENT
With faith and courage, we nurture in our students an enduring zest for all aspects of life and learning, inspiring them to be confident individuals who make a difference in the world.
Testimony to our Mercy ethos is the calibre of the young women who graduate from the College:
young women of strength and integrity
young women with a strong sense of social justice
young women who possess the gentle, compassionate humanity which is Mercy
The Mercy Values of St Aloysius College underpin all that we do:
Compassion
Hospitality
Justice
Service
Respect
Courage
