Special Catholic Character Report
Christ the King is a Catholic school where the teaching and values of Jesus Christ guide us as we relate to and care for each other.
Our Josephite Charism is encapsulated in the sayings of Saint Mary MacKillop
“Wherever we are, we are called to…
Create community,
Be a gift of compassion for one another,
See a need and respond to it,
Have an attitude of gratitude.”
And the Values of:
Respect
Just as you did it to one of the least of these, you did it for me (Matt 25:40)
Love and Service
Let all that you do be done in love (Cor 16:14)
Justice
So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all (Galatians 6:10)
Peace and Joy
This is the day that the Lord has made; / let us rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118:24)

Human Rights
The New Zealand Curriculum requires schools to acknowledge and respect human rights. Being a Human Rights in Education school aligns with our Catholic Special Character and our School Charism. We are committed to developing a learning community that knows, promotes and lives human rights and responsibilities.
