Pastoral Care Program

St Anthony’s School is a faith community in the Franciscan tradition. The Aim of the Pastoral Care Parent Group is to contribute to building a school community in conjunction with the values of St Anthony’s School.

Each class has a Pastoral Care Contact Person who works with the school’s leadership team and class teachers to:

Be welcoming and hospitable
Coordinate a caring class response in times of family need e.g. send a card or flowers, or meals, or arrange transport to/from school, or babysitting
Support the initiatives of the P&F Association
Welcome new families during the year
Ensure that all Pastoral Care activities have the informed consent of the School Leadership Team
Attend a Pastoral Care Contact Group meeting once a term

The caring response of our whole community, as part of our Pastoral Care Parent Program, is a powerful example of Jesus walking this earth today, His ministry continuing through the hearts, hands and feet of all who respond with compassion.
