At Brigidine College Randwick, our core educational philosophy and blueprint for life is our motto, Fortiter et Suaviter (Strength and Gentleness). We believe that preparing students for a rapidly changing world requires a balanced approach that prioritises genuine human connection and engagement.

As a Catholic all-girls secondary school, we empower young women by integrating this powerful motto across our entire curriculum. The strength of our education challenges students to think critically and solve complex problems, giving them the courage to confidently step outside their comfort zone. We thoughtfully use modern resources and technology to enhance learning, but we ensure they never replace the fundamental value of in-person discussions and collaboration.

This critical balance is our gentleness. It is the quiet, powerful force of empathy and respect that guides how we treat others and assist those in need. Gentleness is fostered through deep, personal connections and collaborative projects that build strong communication skills. We are nurturing students to be more than just academically successful; we are shaping confident, resilient, and compassionate leaders.

BRAVE refers to our pastoral care wellbeing program where we ask students to believe in themselves and respect others, achieve personal growth, have a voice and empower our girls to be global citizens.

Our graduates leave ready to make a positive global impact, equipped to balance new ideas with timeless wisdom. We ask them to be BRAVE, be brilliant, and be Brigidine, ensuring they build upon the wonderful culture and charism of our community.
