Divine Mercy College

Divine Mercy College aims to bring education and faith together in partnership with the family, church, and the school community. We aim to provide a quality Catholic education focused on the core values of faith, academics, service, and personal development from preschool and throughout high school to influence a rapidly changing world.

• Please encourage students to attain the beliefs, values, attitudes, knowledge, skills, and practices which will enable them to achieve their full potential as human persons. The College community's concern will be students' integrated development as Catholic men and women – as responsible, inner-directed individuals of Catholic virtue, capable of free choice and making value judgments enlightened by a formed conscience that follows Jesus.
• Ensure that the care and development of each person take place within the Catholic faith community. Students should see Catholic values actively lived in the school rather than merely spoken of and experience them insincere interpersonal relationships.
• Seek to empower students to achieve their potential as our gift to God. In school, the students will be encouraged to learn and respect others' right to learn. The school will also give the students every opportunity to experience the consequence of their actions.
• Divine Mercy College strives to provide a well-balanced curriculum focusing on academic, spiritual, physical, and moral values.
• Priority is given to systematic and structured education following the West Australian Curriculum. We believe every child is a valued member of the school's community and deserves the very best in all areas of human development.
• To attract and retain quality teachers, staff, and administrators who support the DMC mission.
• To encourage the whole person's development by providing access to a wide range of cultural, academic activities.
• Divine Mercy College strives to provide students with positive learning experiences.
• Be concerned with the nurturing and well-being of all who impact the school community. The school's pastoral dimension will show itself in the mutual respect, care, and support administrators and staff show towards each other, as well as through the care they all show for their students. From the pastoral dimension of the whole school life, students learn their value and dignity.
• To recognize that no student can learn unless the environment is inclusive, safe, orderly, and stimulating.
• To encourage cooperation among the church, school, home, and the community essential to the educational process.
• To recognize and address the different challenges and opportunities of all educational levels available through the College.
• To encourage cooperation among Primary School and High School and all educational levels collaborating when possible.

We are a safe school and implement the Keeping Safe: Child Protection Curriculum. The ambiance of our school projects a small Australian community where diversity is celebrated. Our inclusivity is demonstrated through our vital academic programs. A significant population of students with English as an additional language, substantial, intensive English support available, and a multicultural and internationally experienced staff group. Divine Mercy College is proud to follow and promote our Catholic values and traditions. Christ is the beginning and the end in all of our endeavors. The school's prime focus is to give all students the best possible opportunities in their further education and provide a solid moral/spiritual base before they enter the broader community as young adults.
