Parish

Xavier College is situated in the Corpus Christi parish at Cranebrook.

‘Corpus Christi’ comes from the ancient Latin language and means ‘Body of Christ’. Right there in its name of lies the challenge of the parish community; to strive to be a community of Christ’s presence and action here and now in our world.

Corpus Christi Cranebrook is a Christian faith community in the Catholic tradition of worship, sacraments, understanding and teaching. There are however, quite a number of people who regularly worship at Corpus Christi who are not Catholic. Corpus Christi aspires to be a parish where people of a variety of spiritual backgrounds can feel at home, along with those who are trying once again to connect to a faith community.

Xavier College works in partnership with the parish, committed to ourselves to providing quality education for our students by developing goals and strategies which;

• promote our Catholic identity
• maintain and enhance the quality of Religious Education
• address the diverse spiritual, intellectual, emotional and social needs of our students
• strengthen the partnership between teachers, students, parents, clergy and the wider community
