Our Mission
Santa Sabina College, a Catholic school in the Dominican tradition, educates students to achieve personal excellence, to act with justice and compassion, and to embrace the future with an optimistic global vision.
The Order
The Dominican Order was founded by St Dominic de Guzman in 1219. Amidst turmoil, heresy, conformity and fear, Dominic challenged the status quo, took risks, departed from tradition, encouraged learning and founded his Order of Preachers. He challenged his followers ‘to contemplate and share the fruits of contemplation.’
Dominic’s vision
As Dominicans we are called to try to understand one another, to seek the truth through dialogue – disputatio – through conversation, through asking questions and listening. Everyone is welcome to the discussion – and though we may not agree with someone else’s views or choices – we are still to respect them as human beings.
Dominican Pillars
Prayer we pray together regularly in Homerooms as well as in liturgies and masses in the Chapel
Community we gather in assemblies, in our buddy program, and with our Year 10 mentors.
Study we learn through our personalised, engaging and rigorous curriculum.
Service opportunities include Caritas fundraising during Lent, SantaFest, Christmas Hamper Appeal.
