Kia ora e te whanau

At our school, we strive to instil the value of Commitment in our students, as we believe it is an essential aspect of personal growth and success in all areas of life. As a Catholic school, we are inspired by the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, who demonstrated an unwavering commitment to his mission of spreading love and compassion to all. His commitment to his mission was evident in the way he lived his life, even in the face of immense challenges and opposition.

We believe that a commitment to one's values, goals, and responsibilities is crucial for personal growth and success. It requires discipline, perseverance, and sacrifice, but the rewards are significant. As students, commitment is essential for academic success. It means showing up to class on time, completing assignments on time, and putting in the necessary effort to achieve your goals. It also means taking responsibility for your actions and accepting the consequences of your choices.

Commitment is also critical in extracurricular activities, whether it is sports, music, or other clubs. It means showing up to practice, working hard to improve your skills, and supporting your teammates or fellow club members.

As we look beyond our school community, commitment is a value that extends to our relationships with others and our role in the world. It means being committed to treating others with respect and kindness, and making a positive difference in the world. At St Peter’s College, we aim to foster a culture of commitment by encouraging our students to take responsibility for their choices, to strive for excellence in all areas of their lives, and to be compassionate and supportive of others. At this weeks student assembly we learnt about potential and how you need commitment to reach it.

As we continue on our journey, let us remember the example set by Jesus Christ and strive to be committed to our values, our goals, and our responsibilities. Together, we can make a positive impact on our school, our community, and the world.

You are all warmly invited to our opening Mass this Tuesday the 21st of February at 11am at the Blessed Sacrament Church where our theme is Commitment. Year 13 parents, caregivers and students are invited to a cup of tea afterwards at the Senior Citizens. Back at school the rest of the school body will partake in free pancakes for Shrove Tuesday- a final feast before we go into the season of Lent.


Charity fulfils the Law


Tara Quinney,
Principal
