Sophia College

Sophia College recognises and respects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia. Following in our Catholic tradition and in the spirit of St Francis, we are committed to ensuring that all students are provided with opportunities to gain knowledge and engage in activities that celebrate the histories, cultures, and spirituality of First Nations peoples of Australia.

Our vision for reconciliation is to enable all students to feel empowered to understand, explore, celebrate, and share their identity. As part of our vision for reconciliation, we respectfully celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and continue to build knowledge and understanding through Teaching and Learning for all students and families of the school. By making this commitment, we strive to create a culturally inclusive environment where staff, students and community work together supporting, strengthening, and celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples histories, cultures and contributions at Sophia College. 

Sophia College actively strives to build strong, reciprocal relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, families, organisations and local community and are committed to building an inclusive and culturally response educational environment. It is our hope that through fostering strong relationships with First Nation families, and local community groups we will enhance educational experiences, promote cultural understanding, and contribute to a more inclusive and holistic learning environment.
