Racial Justice, Equality and Diversity (RJED)
“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:35
As Christ’s disciples, our love for one another will ensure that all members of our community are held to be equal and are treated with dignity and respect. Through challenge and guidance for our schools, we will overcome bias and discrimination to create a more equal and inclusive society. We will offer support for those who have been ignored, oppressed, abused or persecuted due to their race, ethnicity, culture or background. Together we celebrate the diversity that enriches our community.
At St Agnes, we are proud to be a community that celebrates the richness of our many languages, cultures, and traditions. We recognise the unique identities and contributions of each member of our school family and reflect the beauty of our shared experiences through learning, connection, and understanding.
We respect everyone in our community because each person is created in God’s image (Genesis 1:27) and is worthy of love, care, and dignity. This belief shapes the way we live, learn, and grow together.
Guided by our mission statement — “The family of St Agnes loves, learns, and grows together as followers of Jesus” — we celebrate diversity in all its forms, building a school where every child and adult belongs, is valued, and is encouraged to flourish.
