We recognise that our world is changing faster than ever before, and our children will live vastly different lives than the ones we know today. For our children to thrive and flourish in this new era, we urgently need to change education and schooling.

The Marcellin Difference: Polaris recognises and develops the young men in our care as truly whole human beings. We aspire to cultivate a balance of foundational literacies, character attributes and key capability skills to navigate the world as compassionate Christians and ethical global citizens.

We seek to equip each young man with the context they need to comprehend the world they live in and help them build the necessary critical and creative thinking to better understand and positively contribute to society.

Polaris aspires to foster a robust and inquisitive mind, allowing each young man to emerge, grow and thrive. Polaris is about future proofing. Exploring the learning of tomorrow is an act of stewardship to our future communities and to the young people who will live in them. We cannot entirely predict what the world of the future will look like.

As a result, we equip our young men to be as prepared as possible for any version of what lies ahead. Within a safe and nurturing learning environment, all young men are supported to develop their independence, self-awareness, character, and the academic competence that they will need to meet the challenges of our constantly evolving world.

We hope for each young man to become courageous and entrepreneurial thinkers capable of inventiveness, adaptability, and social and emotional resilience. Ultimately, our young men are called to explore new ways of thinking, preparing them to navigate the unknowns of tomorrow.
