Welcome to Catholic Education in the Diocese of Cairns !
Welcome to the website which connects you into the mission and ministry of Catholic Education within the Diocese of Cairns in Far North Queensland.
Catholic Education within the Diocese comprises schools and services both of which seek to advance the Mission of the local Church as a sign and instrument of the person and message of Christ. The vision: 'putting faith and vision into education' identifies the significance of the Catholic Faith Tradition within education which seeks to liberate people and offer opportunities for fullness of life.
Serving and supporting the Diocesan mission in education is Catholic Education Services (CES). This is a Diocesan Agency, operating under the authority of the Bishop and the governing relationships authorized by him. Its overall responsibilities are articulated in its delegations which in turn are pursued by dedicated people and supportive structures. Our relationship with school communities is an interdependent one, with mission as our collective focus and carriage of responsibilities that are complementary.
The 'windows' into our service are offered to support your understanding of our mission and as a means of accessing support. Please take time to "browse" and engage a sample of the richness the Diocese has to offer in its ministry of Catholic Education, as a service of the local Church in being and building the Kingdom awakened by Christ.
Yours sincerely
Dr Bill Sultmann
