Leadership is more than a badge.

At Mazenod College, students are encouraged to pursue and develop leadership qualities that engage them in formal and informal opportunities. The school provides a variety of experiences in all aspects of community, environment and education, where students can fulfil their leadership potential.

We believe that leadership is not an opportunity to simply wear a badge, but rather an opportunity to share oneself with fellow staff, students, and the wider community. The student voice gives each student the opportunity to participate in decisions that impact on the school community and strategic direction. It is anticipated that Mazenod College leaders share a passion for nurturing the quality of student life at school, selfless dedication to mission, determination and compassion for social justice and the environment, and the ambition to make a difference in the school and wider community.
