Principal's Welcome

With the teachings of Christ to guide us, we strive to nurture the talents of every child in our care, to impart values that we believe are the key to personal fulfilment in the school years and beyond them and to give an experience of education that our students will be able to look back on with pride and pleasure.

A student population that is both male and female, of wide age range, and of great diversity racially, gives an ideal opportunity for furthering the natural and balanced human relationships that are encouraged in Catholic primary schools.  Marcellin College is able to provide young people with lessons in tolerance and mutual respect that will equip them well for adult life.

In order for them to be positive, well adjusted and motivated, our students need to be aware of the talents God has given each individual.  They need to recognise their duty to cultivate those personal strengths, to pursue success with the utmost determination.  The staff of the College are committed to helping each child to strive for and achieve personal excellence.

It is crucial that parents and guardians share our hopes for, and expectations of, their children.  The saying that "it takes a whole village to educate a child" indicates the degrees of shared understanding and co-operation that are necessary if we are to realise our goals fully.  At Marcellin College, students, parents and teachers are expected to be a close-knit community working together.

Welcome to this Website and should you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact the College.
