Principal's Welcome | Emmaus
Principal’s Welcome
A welcome message from Emmaus Catholic College Principal, Gabriela Osterlund.
Welcome to Emmaus Catholic College, where we prepare our students for the world outside the classroom.
Set among native bushland, our College offers a calm environment and modern learning spaces designed to engage students.
Emmaus supports each student’s learning, wellbeing and personal growth, guided by the Catholic tradition of educating the whole person. My prayer for students at the College is to develop the skills, values and attitudes needed to make a positive contribution to our world, to fully utilise and share their individual gifts; to take up the challenge of academic rigour and to seek a sense of spiritual growth.
Our College’s outstanding facilities allow us to provide a relevant, modern and practical education, utilising the latest technologies across all Key Learning Areas and a range of elective studies
Founded by the Mercy order, our College continues its tradition through our motto "We Walk With Jesus" (Luke 24:13-33) and encourages students to follow Christ’s example of compassion, love and kindness.
At Emmaus we work in partnership with parents, families and the wider community to educate and prepare our students for life beyond school and into their future. . We use true to life learning experiences, ensuring that our students find their education relevant and meaningful, and instilling in them a lifelong love of learning.
On behalf of the Emmaus Catholic College community, I welcome you and hope to meet you on a school tour soon.
